This series breaks the build on MIPS/OCTEON (the only actual HW using this
driver):

$ make ARCH=mips CROSS_COMPILE=mips64-linux-gnu- cavium_octeon_defconfig
$ make ARCH=mips CROSS_COMPILE=mips64-linux-gnu-
[...]
  CC      drivers/staging/octeon/ethernet.o

etc.

Probably all these patches need to be reverted.
