  MIPS Boston board, which is using MIPS_GENERIC kernel is using
EG20T PCH and thus need this driver.

Note that CONFIG_PCH_GBE is selected in arch/mips/configs/generic/
board-boston.config for a while, some how it's never wired up
in Kconfig.

Netdev maintainers, is it possible to squeeze this tiny patch into
fixes tree?

Hi Jianxun Yang,

with this patch applied on top of net [1] I see the following.
Am I doing something wrong?

ARCH=mips

$ make defconfig

Other than the warning a kernel build with this config seemed to work fine

Also, if the patch is targeted at 'net' then that should be noted in the
subject.

	Subject: [PATCH net] ...

And 'pch_gbe: ' is probably a slightly better prefix.
