I'm not sure if I understand you correctly. The network controller in the
i.MX6 SoC is the one driven by the fec driver inside linux. This driver was
ported to Genode last year and merged into the repo in November 2017.
I'm not sure how much work is required to get everything working on the
Sabrelite board, but the fec driver is the one you want.
Therefore I would again recommend to switch to a newer release of Genode that
includes the driver. My personal recommendation would be to always keep close
to the latest released version of Genode (which as of now is 18.08), unless the
latest version has a bug that you can't fix or work around or has a feature you
depend on removed that you neither can carry yourself or implement in another way.

Regards,
Hinnerk
