That means your network subsystem drivers are loading. Not the physical Ethernet Device.
For a device you should see something like this. ep93xx-eth version 0.1 loading eth0: ep93xx on-chip ethernet, IRQ 39, 00:0e:3a:11:22:33. what you are seeing is networking support, not device support. Like Packet Socket IP: tunneling and what not.
