Thanks for this! I've been trying to build 3.9-rc1 on my Mirabox, and
I had the same problem as Masami. The patch allows mvneta to be
built-in to the kernel, but built as a module it gives the linker
error below:

ERROR: "request_percpu_irq" [drivers/net/ethernet/marvell/mvneta.ko] undefined!
ERROR: "free_percpu_irq" [drivers/net/ethernet/marvell/mvneta.ko] undefined!

Linking it into the kernel and installing allows the network
interfaces to come up, and they can receive traffic, but oddly enough
even though tcpdump shows that traffic is transmitting and the link
lights blink, the other side does not see any traffic. I've tested
this with different computers and different link speeds to no avail.
The fact that the link lights blink when transmitting makes me think
it's not a firewall problem (and that this rootfs works with another
arm box), but I'm not sure where to look next. Any idea?

Thanks,
Ryan
