You're right. I guess that easiest way to deal with it is to save blob from p54spi_eeprom.h into a file
3826.eeprom in the same directory as 3826.arm and fix MAC address in it, according to comments in p54spi_eeprom.h

These data for sure must reside on /dev/mtdblk1 partition, but they're probably somehow coded/obfuscated.
I couldn't find anything similar to MAC of my own n810 there.

Thanks.
