When booting with CONFIG_ARM_APPENDED_DTB (either because of using an old
U-Boot, not wanting the hassle of 2 files or when using Falcon fast boot
mode in U-Boot), nothing updates the ethernet hwaddr specified for the
CPSW slaves, causing the driver to use a random hwaddr, which is some times
troublesome.

The am33xx has unique ethernet hwaddrs programmed in the efuse, so it makes
more sense to default to these rather than random ones. Add a fixup step
which adds mac-address dt properties using the efuse addresses if the DTB
didn't contain valid ones.

This implementation looks fine.
