Fix Kconfig warnings:

WARNING: unmet direct dependencies detected for NETDEVICES
  Depends on [n]: NET [=n]
  Selected by [y]:
  - AKEBONO [=y] && PPC_47x [=y]

WARNING: unmet direct dependencies detected for ETHERNET
  Depends on [n]: NETDEVICES [=y] && NET [=n]
  Selected by [y]:
  - AKEBONO [=y] && PPC_47x [=y]

AKEBONO select NETDEVICES and ETHERNET unconditionally,
It shouldn't do that, that's the job of a defconfig.

It might want to enable NET_VENDOR_IBM iff the config already has NET
and other dependencies enabled.

So the patch below might work?

cheers

If NET is not set, build fails. Add this dependcy to fix this.
