The SET_NETDEV_DEV has to be done before a call to register_netdev. With
the new patch below, the device symlink for the platform device was
created. Unfortunately, after the 4 ls commands, the network connection
died. No idea if the box crashed or if something else broke, lost remote
access.
Provide sysfs 'device' in /class/net/ethN Also, set module owner field,
like pcnet32 driver does.
