This patch adds a generic mechanism for overriding the SPROM mechanism
on devices without SPROM hardware.

There currently is a major problem with this:
It tries to deduce a MAC address from various hardware parameters. But
currently it will result in the same MAC address for machines of the same
type. Does somebody have an idea of some device-instance specific serial
number or something similar that could be hashed into the MAC?

What version is this patch against ? I tries rc7,rc8 and 2.6.31.6.
But it doesn't work for me.

Thank you

Sebastian
