This looks all wrong to me.  In U-Boot, the "ethaddr" environment
variable is normally the primary storage for the MAC address.  Only
when this variable is not set, other potential storage locations may
be referenced to initialize this value.

Your patch always and unconditionally overwrites any existing
"ethaddr" settings.  This is not acceptable.

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk
