My feeling is that we should probably make all network support loadable modules eventually, it seems wrong to single out yours if your current workflow depends on the built-in driver today. I'm pulling your branch for now, but I'll keep asking around what others think, and we might change all drivers that can to be loadable modules later on. In particular, a number of chips that primarily run Android are now changed so they can have even more fundamental drivers (pinctrl, clk, ...) as loadable modules, and it seems like a good idea to also support that in the defconfig.
