This seems more like a "select" situation, why in the world should the
user be required to know about NET_VENDOR_MISCROSEMI at all for this
driver?
And NET_VENDOR_MICROSEMI does _NOT_ enable any code at all, you have
to enable the individual drivers guarded by NET_VENDOR_MICROSEMI in order
to resolve the symbols necessary for ocelot.
I'm not applying this, it isn't correct.
Thank you.
