Hi,

A few general things below (I'll leave the actual networking bits for
others to comment about).

Probably worth splitting this up a bit into a series of multiple
logically separate patches. E.g. the vendor prefix, the core, the ether
backend and dt bindings.

Should the kconfig symbol have linn in the name, or should the prompt
not have lin in the name?

Just make PKT_SNIFFER_ETHER depend first on PKT_SNIFFER, then it'll
appear nested within it in menuconfig.

worth adding || COMPILE_TEST to get compile coverage on x86 allmodconfig
builds, or does it have hard dependencies on the MIPS arch?

No need, n is default

No need for this check. devm_ioremap_resource does it for you.

Nit: not strictly necessary to initialise .data since it's static.
