Ah, right. I also see now that the last user of smc911x was removed
from the kernel in January 2015 with a521422ea4ae ("ARM: shmobile:

    SMSC LAN911x and LAN921x vendor driver
    
    Attached is a driver for SMSC's LAN911x and LAN921x families of embedded
    ethernet controllers.
    
    There is an existing smc911x driver in the tree; this is intended to
    replace it.  Dustin McIntire (the author of the smc911x driver) has
    expressed his support for switching to this driver.
    
    This driver contains workarounds for all known hardware issues, and has
    been tested on all flavours of the chip on multiple architectures.
    
    This driver now uses phylib, so this patch also adds support for the
    device's internal phy
