Hi,
The smsc911x driver is doing a number of things in its probe routine that
should be delayed until the interface is started. Because of this, the module
cannot be unloaded, the phy states are incorrect/stale if the interface isn't
running, open's unnecessarily fail causing network configuration problems, and
the /proc/irq nodes are incorrectly named.
Clean up a number of these problems by moving the mdio and interrupt
configuration into the smsc911x_open routine.
