I cannot squash this into the last patch because when patch 7 comes,
it breaks Intel Crown Bay board build as non-dm version is gone.
That's why you see in this patch when I turned on CONFIG_DM_ETH, I
also disabled CONFIG_PCH_GBE (non-dm driver). Then after patch 7
converts the pch_gbe driver to dm, I added that driver back in patch
9. This way it passes buildman testing without breaking bisectability.
But if you think we can break such kind of bisectability, I can
reorder these patches.
