I don't know why not.
I guess the system calls you may be having issues with are the ones to create
an interface via /sys. I think you can redo those somehow.
You probably also need a way to do DCBX (negotiate priority flow control, etc),
which is currently a user-level daemon.
You would also need the FIP code, and the most recent version like 2.6.33
is beter. 2.6.25 is pretty old and doesn't have FIP.
