From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@xxxxxxxx> This takes the MAC address for smsc75xx/smsc95xx USB network devices from a the device tree. This is required to get a usable persistent address on the popular beagleboard, whose hardware designers accidentally forgot that an ethernet device really requires an a MAC address to be functional. The Raspberry Pi also ships smsc9514 without a serial EEPROM, stores the MAC address in ROM accessible via VC4 firmware. The smsc75xx and smsc95xx drivers are just two copies of the same code, so better fix both.
