We use 1:1 mappings, so I think this comment should be removed.

What alignment do you need here? This may or may not be safe.

This loop looks wrong. You should only receive a single packet for each
call of this function.

Please check the return values of dev_request_mem_region,
mdiobus_register and eth_register. I'm fine with not properly cleaning
up afterwards, but we should be able to notice the user if something
goes wrong here. (Yeah, I know, many network driver don't do so)
