I think Michael should do that, if possible.

drivers/net/ethernet/8390/Kconfig:
config AX88796
tristate "ASIX AX88796 NE2000 clone support"
depends on (ARM || MIPS || SUPERH)
select CRC32
select PHYLIB
select MDIO_BITBANG
I guess your kernel .config doesn't have PHYLIB nor/nand MDIO_BITBANG?
Ah, the troubles of building stand-alone driver modules...
