The MT7925 PCIe driver (mt7925e) is currently not enabled in the bcm2712 defconfig, which prevents MT7925-based M.2/PCIe Wi-Fi cards (e.g. PCI ID 14c3:7925) from working out of the box on CM5 / Raspberry Pi 5 platforms.

This change enables CONFIG_MT7925E=m as a module, aligning it with the existing MT76 / MT7925 USB support (CONFIG_MT7925U=m).

Verified on a CM5 with a MediaTek MT7925 PCIe device: after rebuilding and installing the kernel and modules, modprobe mt7925e loads successfully and a WLAN interface is created.

Note: This driver requires dtoverlay=pcie-32bit-dma-pi5 to be enabled.
