As a test, I was able to fix this by this approach : change SCSI_NETLINK to depend  
on NET instead of selecting NET, and replacing 'select NETDEVICES ETHERNET 
NET_VENDOR_BROADCOM CNIC' to 'depends on CNIC' in bnx2i & bnx2fc. (as CNIC 
already has a dependency on those). This removes the need to check for IPV6 in 
bnx2i/fc Kconfigs as well.

The side effect is that you won't see BNX2 drivers unless CNIC is selected, similar
for SCSI_NETLINK as well, not sure if there are any other implications.
