Currently, the FEC device is placed on the 'virtual' bus, and so has no
driver symlink in sysfs. This symlink is required for network manager to
handle the device properly, so FEC devices are currently ignored.

This change converts the FEC driver to use the platform bus, so we get
the proper symlinks set up in sysfs. With this change, NM will bring up
the network as expected.

We're doing the platform_device_register in the driver itself, rather
than in machine-specific code. This is a bit of a hack: the driver will
always attempt to initialise a FEC even if one isn't present in the
system. However, this is no different from the existing driver.

applied - Have you dropped this one on the Freescale folks? I changed
the commit label to 'UBUNTU: SAUCE:' until they get it in their tree, or
it gets upstream.

I've heard that freescale have an updated FEC driver, and will get in touch to 
see if I can grab the new version. Once that happens, we will probably want to 
update to the new driver.

So, this patch should only be required as a workaround for NM issues while 
we're on this older version. I don't think there's any need to upstream it.

Cheers,


Jeremy
