PATCH 1/21 usb net: asix does not really need 10/100mbit

From: Mike Frysinger <[email protected]>

The asix usb driver currently depends on NET_ETHERNET which means you cannot enable this driver if you only have 1000mbit enabled in your kernel. Since there is no real dependency between the NET_ETHERNET portion and the asix driver, simply drop it.

man, NET_ETHERNET is woefully misnamed
