SMSC LAN911x and LAN921x vendor driver

Attached is a driver for SMSC's LAN911x and LAN921x families of embedded

replace it.  Dustin McIntire (the author of the smc911x driver) has

This driver contains workarounds for all known hardware issues, and has
been tested on all flavours of the chip on multiple architectures.

This driver now uses phylib, so this patch also adds support for the
device's internal phy
