Since I have 2 Ethernets, would your recommendation be I add an alias for
each?

Honestly, I've never done it that way. It has always been that u-boot 
preloads the MAC address registers and then the sh_eth driver just uses 
what's already loaded.
But, if using DT is the more recommended method, I can migrate towards
that.

Thanks,
Chris
