Re: GT64260 ethernet

We have a board with the Galileo GT64260 chip and we'd like to use the
gt64260 ethernet driver.  At the moment, its config option is in
arch/ppc/config.in and is controlled by the CONFIG_GT64260 option
(which is not turned on for our boards, CONFIG_GEMINI is).  I'd think
that the preferred way to fix this is to put the CONFIG_GT64260_ETH
option in drivers/net/config.in.  The alternative is to have

if [ "$CONFIG_GT64260" = "y" -o "$CONFIG_GEMINI" = "y" ]; then

This may not be the best place for it but right now, that stuff is in
arch/ppc/config.in.  When you turn on CONFIG_GT64260 (presumably as a
result of selecting your platform--see CONFIG_EV64260), there will be an
additional submenu show up under "Platform support" called "Galileo
GT64260 Options".  Go in there and select the enet drivers you want and
pick a MAC addr if you don't like the default.

I guess that should migrate to the drivers/net Config.in...

The driver worked once but has been broken by the latest checkin (at
least for me).  I have a version that works for me.  I will push it out
sometime next week but if you need it now, let me know and I'll email it
to you.
