I tried a recent snapshot of openWrt project and it happened that the ethernet card was not initialised on my DSL624T (AR7 based modem/router).
According to what I could find in the news, there is a conflict during registration of the driver, so I tried to fix it.
And here it comes the patch that allowed me to have my cpmac eth0 up and running.
As I am not an experiment kernel hacker, this may be not the good way to do it, but a least, it look more like what other drivers do :)
Could someone apply this patch to the kernel tree?
Best regards
B.I.
