Some very minor things below :

Sorry not to have spotted that before, but after that patch you no
longer need dev->fc_request_control, you can get rid of that in
struct lan78xx_net.

Related to other patches (probably patch 1), it also appears you can get
rid of :
- dev->fc_autoneg
- dev->interface
- dev->link_on

Thanks,

Maxime
