The problem is CDCETHER (ECM) tries to be a generic driver that just
works for USB standards compliant generic hardware...

There shouldn't be a 'subdriver'  
If it does not make any sense to disable USB_RTL8153_ECM if CDCETHER
is enabled, perhaps the option should just be removed?
And when we say "removed" we can just hide it from what's prompted 
to the user (whatever such internal options are called)? I believe 
this way we don't bring back Marek's complaint.
