For what it is worth, I was able to take the original patches and rebase them to v3.15-rc6 with just a couple of very minor changes and produce a working ethernet for my 5484 system. I don't recall seeing too much. Time to try again?

(I hope so, I really want to see this working for good :-) I am responding to each patch on that basis - so I am being a bit picky on the details. The driver parts (driver/net/ethernet/freescale/*) will need to be reviewed on the netdev mailing list at some point. And really need to go via Dave Millers netdev tree. I am not sure who looks after the drivers/dma, but scripts/get_maintainer.pl gives a few suggestions. Would pay to send it to the m68k list as well.
