This has nothing to do with buildroot, questions like this belong on
netdev at vger.kernel.org. With that said, there's two things you can do:

- Either do dhcp/nfs mounting yourself in an initramfs
- Or tweak CONF_PRE_OPEN in net/ipv4/ipconfig.c to add a longer delay
  before it tries to open the device. You might need to change the
  msleep to a sslep like CONF_POST_OPEN if you make it too long.

This isn't anything specific to my dm9601 driver, but common for all
devices on async probed busses like USB.
