It may make more sense to remove a lot of the duplicate code first. I
have patches which centralises all the switch reset and PHY access. It
should also be possible to centralise the statistics code. At a rough
guess, that is going to remove 50% of each driver. Quite a bit of the
remainder can also be centralised, but there is where the drivers
actually start to differ, and so will take more effort.
