The second problem is where I got stuck myself: cpsw_ale.c (also cpts.c)
is getting linked into both modules, which is not allowed: It is
impossible for the kernel to compile these if one driver is a module
and the other one is not, and any use of KBUILD_MODNAME fails because
it is unclear what the modname is if the file is compiled once to
be linked into two drivers.
Arnd,
I think the solution is to make the cpsw_ale as a module and configured
through a Kconfig option. I am working on a fix for this now.
Similar fix is required for cpts.o. Currently we are not using this
module for Netcp, but soon this will be re-used. I have send a patch
that is already applied to net-next removing cpts.o for Netcp.

I am still looking into this. Both Keystone and TI CPSW driver would
need to use cpsw_ale.o and cpts.o (currently not used, but will need
this later). Not found a solution yet.
