Are you all using the HP 5.5 U1 ISO released in March 2014? Or the just recently released updated June 2014 HP 5.5 U1 ISO?

The March ISO contains the driver net-bnx2 - Version - 2.2.4f.v55.3, which is older than the reported driver in the message above. This might be the reason it refuses to update.
So make sure you're using the recent June HP ISO:
I used the latest version, June 2014.
