Okay, have a look at:

http://git.armlinux.org.uk/cgit/linux-arm.git/log/?h=net-queue

and the patches from "net: enetc: remove interface checks in
enetc_pl_mac_validate ()" down to the "net-merged" branch label.

That set of patches add the supported_interfaces bitmap, uses it for
validation purposes, converts all but one of the ethernet drivers
over to using it, and then simplifies the validate() implementations.
