[RFC PATCH 2/3] USBNET: Introduce usbnet platform data

From: Andy Green
Date: Sat Mar 12 2011 - 17:40:21 EST


This defines optional platform_data for usbnet. It allows
you to force eth%d name usage based on board-level knowledge
that it is soldered to a board and wired to an RJ45 on the board,
and to set the MAC address to a specific value from board
definition file.
