--- Comment #3 from Peter Korsgaard <jacmet at uclibc.org> ---
I take it that you somewhere in that sequence enabled mdev? (E.G. System
configuration->/dev management (Dynamic using devtmpfs+mdev)

The module specifies the following aliases:

modinfo
target/lib/modules/4.4.36-v7/kernel/drivers/net/ethernet/microchip/enc28j60.ko
| grep alias
alias:          spi:enc28j60
alias:          of:N*T*Cmicrochip,enc28j60*

Can you first of all verify that you can load the module with these wildcards?

E.G.

modprobe 'spi:enc28j60'
lsmod | grep enc28j60
rmmod enc28j60.ko

modprobe 'of:N*T*Cmicrochip,enc28j60*'
lsmod | grep enc28j60
rmmod enc28j60.ko

And check what the modalias is for the /sys/bus/spi/* device?
