Ah yes, that's the other problem... netconsole relies on link order to
be linked in after all other network drivers. But since the cpm2 ones
are currently broken and live in arch/ppc, the link order is busted.
You can change netconsole from module_init to late_initcall(), but I
don't think you can convince upstream that this is the correct fix.
