Enable BCMGENET as a module on arm64_defconfig-5.9

Following on from my earlier PR. This change allows the RPi4 to be fully usable with the built in NIC.

[    5.975171] bcmgenet BCM6E4E:00: GENET 5.0 EPHY: 0x0000
[    6.063744] bcmgenet BCM6E4E:00 enabcm6e4ei0: renamed from eth0

How to use

Boot updated kernel/image and wonder at the marvel of the working NIC ;)

Testing done

Used the SDK with board arm64-usr to fully build and test the change. I now have a working NIC interface on Flatcar, tested via UEFI booting over TFTP of the PXE images with iPXE.
