Jumped, pushed, you say tomato, ... ;^)

So I went in and set the debug_level to netif_msg_init() to -1 in the davinci_emac
driver.  The only thing I get during the boot process is:

net eth0: DaVinci EMAC Probe found device (regs: 01e23000, irq: 33)

which is good (I also added some debug to make sure probe actually completes), but
I don't see *anything* else.  I guess I would have expected to see something out of 
the emac_dev_open.  So I added some more debug in there, it's hanging in the 
phy_connect() call.  The phy_id it came up with was correct "0:03".

I did apply the requeue on early end-of-queue patch.  No difference, which is not
surprising as it's dying in the phy_connect.  I don't think I need the others, 
as the correct phy_id is being located by the MDIO probe headed
into the phy_connect call (pointer is valid, string is OK, etc.).  If I have time I
can continue to poke around, but I'm really not up on this chunk of code...
