The general case ends up being if we have more than one interface,
ethact is what's used.  I'm unsure off-hand if some of the fancier
networking-centric chipsets and devices have something more complex
setup in their stacks.

Likely the bootloader uses the only one ethernet interface for loading. And it might
be enough to have an IP stack on top of the active eth device only. This is a model
that I am following in these patches.
