meth driver renovation
The meth ethernet driver for the SGI IP32 aka O2 is so far still an old style driver which does not use the device driver model. This is now causing issues with some udev based gadgetry in debian-stable. Fixed by converting the meth driver to a platform device. Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org> -- Fixes since previous patch: o Fixed typo in meth_exit_module() Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>
