It's stated in the TODO file you are deleting (visible in your
patch): "This driver is functional and supports Ethernet on
OCTEON+/OCTEON2/OCTEON3 chips at least up to CN7030."

This includes e.g. some D-Link routers and Uniquiti EdgeRouters. You
can check from /proc/cpuinfo if you are running on this MIPS SoC.
