As of current mainline tree, TULIP driver is unusable on MPC8610HPCD boards. There is a patch[1] floating around (and also included in the BSP), which tries to heal the situation, though the ethernet is still unusable. Practically it takes ages to mount NFS filesystem:
VFS: Mounted root (nfs filesystem). Freeing unused kernel memory: 180k init nfs: server 10.0.0.2 not responding, still trying nfs: server 10.0.0.2 OK nfs: server 10.0.0.2 not responding, still trying nfs: server 10.0.0.2 not responding, still trying nfs: server 10.0.0.2 not responding, still trying nfs: server 10.0.0.2 not responding, still trying nfs: server 10.0.0.2 OK nfs: server 10.0.0.2 not responding, still trying So, instead of trying to add uli526x functionality into TULIP driver (which is already bloated enough), I fixed existing ULI526X driver and now it works perfectly well here.
