This is needed to give the MIPS Ingenic CI20 board a stable MAC address
which can be optionally provided by vendor U-Boot.

For get_mac_addr() we use an adapted copy of from ksz884x.c which
has very similar functionality.

Yes. It is a fallback solution like it is implemented for ksz884x.c to make it
work with existing (older) U-Boot installation.

Maybe I should better clarify this in the commit message for v2 (which goes
to netdev only).

BR and thanks,
Nikolaus
