smc91x is complicated by the fact that it started off life before there
was any possibility to pass IRQ flags through resources. So we ended
up with smc91x.h containing _lots_ of platform specific data, and the
driver could only be built for one platform.
I fixed that by sorting out this IRQ passing method, and changing smc91x
to support both the fixed configuration, and the dynamic-through-IRQflags
method.
There is no reason for any other driver to support the fixed method; that
would be a completely backwards step.
