Fix mcs7830 patch
The recent mcs7830 update to make the MII support sharable goofed various
pre-existing configurations in two ways:
- it made the usbnet infrastructure reference MII symbols even
when they're not needed in the kernel being built
- it didn't enable MII along with the mcs7830 minidriver
This patch fixes these two problems.
However, there does seem to be a Kconfig reverse dependency bug in that MII
gets wrongly enabled in some cases (like USBNET=y and USBNET_MII=n); I think
I've noticed that same problem in other situations too. So the result can
mean kernels being bloated by stuff that's needlessly enabled ... better
than wrongly being disabled, but contributing to bloat.

This driver supports several kinds of network links over USB,
|
|
with "minidrivers" built around a common network driver core
|
|
that supports deep queues for efficient transfers. (This gives
|
|
better performance with small packets and at high speeds).
|
|
|
|
The USB host runs "usbnet", and the other end of the link might be:
|
|
|
|
- Another USB host, when using USB "network" or "data transfer"
|
|
cables. These are often used to network laptops to PCs, like
|
|
"Laplink" parallel cables or some motherboards. These rely
|
|
on specialized chips from many suppliers.
|
|
|
|
- An intelligent USB gadget, perhaps embedding a Linux system.
|
|
These include PDAs running Linux (iPaq, Yopy, Zaurus, and
|
|
others), and devices that interoperate using the standard
|
|
CDC-Ethernet specification (including many cable modems).
|
|
|
|
- Network adapter hardware (like those for 10/100 Ethernet) which
|
|
uses this driver framework.
|
|
|
|
The link will appear with a name like "usb0", when the link is
|
|
a two-node link, or "eth0" for most CDC-Ethernet devices. Those
|
|
two-node links are most easily managed with Ethernet Bridging
|
|
(CONFIG_BRIDGE) instead of routing.
