The ethernet controller used on kirkwood looses its MAC address
register contents when the corresponding clock is gated. As soon as
mv643xx_eth is built as module, the clock gets gated and when loading
the module, the MAC address is gone.

Proper DT support for the mv643xx_eth driver is expected soon, so we add
a workaround to always enable ge0/ge1 clocks on kirkwood. This workaround
is also already used on non-DT kirkwood kernels.

Changelog:
[v2]
- add note in patch description that MAC address is lost only when using
  modular driver
- add note in patch description that the workaround will be removed soon

Tested this on IB-NAS6210 (kirkwood, single GBE interface). Using
mv643xx_eth as a module works again now and yields

# cat /sys/kernel/debug/clk/tclk/ge[01]/clk_enable_count 
2
1

as expected.

Applied to mvebu/fixes with Simon's Tested-by:
