Subject: [PATCH v5 09/12] arm64: defconfig: build r8169 as a module

From: Marcel Ziswiler <[email protected]>

Build Realtek Gigabit Ethernet driver as a module.

Network cards based on chipsets this driver supports are ubiquitous both
in regular PCIe as well as mini-PCIe and nowadays even various M.2
formats. It is therefore a suitable card to be used for any kind of PCIe
and/or Gigabit Ethernet testing. As it is not designed in, just enabling
it as a module seems most suitable.
