Fix mcs7830 patch

The recent mcs7830 update to make the MII support sharable goofed various
pre-existing configurations in two ways:

  - it made the usbnet infrastructure reference MII symbols even
    when they're not needed in the kernel being built

  - it didn't enable MII along with the mcs7830 minidriver

This patch fixes these two problems.

However, there does seem to be a Kconfig reverse dependency bug in that MII
gets wrongly enabled in some cases (like USBNET=y and USBNET_MII=n); I think
I've noticed that same problem in other situations too.  So the result can
mean kernels being bloated by stuff that's needlessly enabled ... better
than wrongly being disabled, but contributing to bloat.

<title>USB: driver for mcs7830 (aka DeLOCK) USB ethernet adapter</title>

<content type='text'>
This driver adds support for the DeLOCK USB ethernet adapter
and potentially others based on the MosChip MCS7830 chip.

It is based on the usbnet and asix drivers as well as the
original device driver provided by MosChip, which in turn
was based on the usbnet driver.

It has been tested successfully on an OHCI, but interestingly
there seems to be a problem with the mcs7830 when connected to
the ICH6/EHCI in my thinkpad: it keeps receiving lots of
broken packets in the RX interrupt. The problem goes away when
I'm using an active USB hub, so I assume it's not related to
the device driver, but rather to the hardware.

This wraps up the conversion of the "usbnet" driver structure, by
moving the Prolific PL-2201/2302 minidriver to a module of its own.
It also includes some minor cleanups to the remaining "usbnet" file,
notably removing that long changelog at the top.

Minor historical note:  Linux 2.2 first called the driver for
this hardware "plusb".

This adds host-side RNDIS support to the "usbnet" driver, so Linux can talk
to various devices (often based on WinCE) that otherwise only Windows could
talk to.

Tested with little-endian Linux talking to a Linux-USB Ethernet/RNDIS based
peripheral.  This also includes updates from Eddie C. Dost &lt;ecd@brainaid.de&gt;
for big-endian SPARC Linux talking to a Nokia 9500 Communicator.

It's still marked as EXPERIMENTAL because this code is so young.  This
ought to let Linux to work with various cable modems that previously
would have been "Windows Only".

Makes the CDC Ethernet support live in a separate driver module.
This module is a bit special since it exports utility functions
that are reused by the the Zaurus and RNDIS drivers, but it's
not "core" like usbnet itself.

This moves the GeneSys GL620USB-A support into its own driver file.
It also fixes a "return wrong skb" glitch in the rx unbatching, as
recently reported, and adds some missing byteswaps in the special
"genelink" headers (so it might now work on big-endian Linux).

As with the "cdc_subset" and "asix" drivers, this just moves the net1080
support into its one driver module.  In this case there's a small bit of
extra cleanup involved, moving some funky framing logic into the tx_fixup()
routine (resolving a long overdue FIXME).

Minor historical note:  "usbnet" started out as "net1080", then got
generalized to make it easier for other network drivers to reuse the
urb queueing and fault management code here.
