One issue with this approach is that we don't know which inteface in the dt is 
usb ethernet and which is not.
So correctly assigning the MAC to the correct inteface will be tricky.

But the patch is flawed in the affect is that it does not take into account 
multiple usbethaddr either.  I will rework it for this but I am not sure about 
the other.
