No need to put this into architecture specific code, just register
the of_platform_driver from mv643xx_init_module and use the device
you get passed in there.

Once arch/ppc is dead, you can remove the platform_driver from mv643xx
entirely.
Like with the mpsc driver, there is an existing platform-driver-based
ethernet driver used by MIPS and powerpc platforms.  OF isn't universal yet.
