I gave it a try on km_kirkwood. What happens on keymile boards is that we get the warning: Warning: failed to set MAC address if we initially start the board without an environment saved previously. And this is better than writing a random mac adress into the HW, I guess... Fortunately our boards in case of an initial boot are configuring different things e.g. the correct ethaddr, do a saveenv and a reboot. And afterwards everything is ok. So yes for our boards it's ok to remove this code.
