The MII functions aren't available unless NET_ETHERNET=y.

David, any ideas on this one?

 config USB_USBNET
        tristate "Multi-purpose USB Networking Framework"
+       depends on NET_ETHERNET if USB_USBNET_MII != n
        select MII if USB_USBNET_MII != n

would be handy.  But invalid.

Hm, wait.  Haven't we seen this before and decided that MII should
be made more generally available?  I.e., not depend on NET_ETHERNET?
