MV64360 is in arch/ppc/Kconfig, and is currently defined for KATANA and
CHESTNUT.  If I understand correctly, it should be defined for any
board using the MV64360.  I don't think we want the PPC_CHRP dependency.

The mv643xx_eth probe is dependent on having the appropriate
platform device entry.  See eth0_device and mv64x60_add_pds() in
arch/ppc/syslib/mv643x60.c .
