Hi Jeff,

In commit 9aa328359545 ("ehea/ibm*: Move the IBM drivers") from Dave's
net tree, you not only move the drivers around, but you change
CONFIG_IBM_NEW_EMAC to CONFIG_IBM_EMAC.  Won't that mean that all the
PowerPC configs that currently set CONFIG_IBM_NEW_EMAC to y will no
longer build this driver?

Your right.  The defconfig's will need to be updated by the arch
maintainers.  This particular change was requested by the maintainer's
of the driver.
