When you do not use a normal distribution kernel with lots of modules activate you have to activate some dependencies in your kernel by yourself. Sadly CONFIG_MDIO is a hidden option so you have to build some other Ethernet driver which depends on that option. We do ot want to fix this in backports. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
