How big is the dtbo ?

This is going in the right direction. I'm just wondering if each dtbo
should be wrapped in its own very slim PCI driver, which simply
registers its lan966x_pci_info structure to a core driver. Only the
needed dtbo will then be loaded into memory as a module, not them all.

Pretty much all the pieces are here, so it can be done later.
