So many things...  Here are what I see as the low-hanging fruit:

1. Move all ethernet initializations into 
cpu_eth_init()/board_eth_init().  You can see this is underway.
2. Get rid of the CONFIG_NET_MULTI option.  The trick here is to keep 
the code size of single-controller boards as small as possible.
3. PHY library.

With these implemented, I think we can start to look at more interesting 
problems.  Feel free to brainstorm here!

regards,
Ben
