An object file cannot be built for both loadable module and built-in
use at the same time:

arm-linux-gnueabi-ld: drivers/net/ethernet/micrel/ks8851_common.o: in function 
`ks8851_probe_common':
ks8851_common.c:(.text+0xf80): undefined reference to `__this_module'

Change the ks8851_common code to be a standalone module instead,
and use Makefile logic to ensure this is built-in if at least one
of its two users is.

Marek sent two other patches to address the problem:
https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20210116164828.40545-1-ma...@denx.de/
https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20210115134239.126152-1-ma...@denx.de/

My version is what I applied locally to my randconfig tree, and
I think this is the cleanest solution.

If this version works for all the configuration combinations, then that's perfect, thanks.
