No, there's as there is no dependency on the litex soc driver.

Again, there is no mii or phy code so the driver doesn't need these.

Yes, I was using BUFFER_SIZE as the slot size, which it is not. I'll
rework it to use the slot size I think.
I spent some time digging through the migen source and I couldn't work
out where the 1024 length comes from. If anything it should be
eth_mtu, which is 1530.
Florent, can you clear that up?

We use the managed variant of alloc_etherdev, which means the
structure is freed by the driver core when the driver is removed. This
saves having to open code the cleanup/free code.
Have a read of Documentation/driver-api/driver-model/devres.rst for
more information.
Thanks for the review Gabriel. I'll send a v3 with some fixes for the
fifo buffer handling.
Cheers,
Joel
