42 * Search the device tree for the best MAC address to use. 'mac-address' is
43 * checked first, because that is supposed to contain to "most recent" MAC
44 * address. If that isn't set, then 'local-mac-address' is checked next,
45 * because that is the default address. If that isn't set, then the obsolete
46 * 'address' is checked, just in case we're using an old device tree.
48 * Note that the 'address' property is supposed to contain a virtual address of
49 * the register set, but some DTS files have redefined that property to be the
50 * MAC address.
52 * All-zero MAC addresses are rejected, because those could be properties that
53 * exist in the device tree, but were not set by U-Boot. For example, the
54 * DTS could define 'mac-address' and 'local-mac-address', with zero MAC
55 * addresses. Some older U-Boots only initialized 'local-mac-address'. In
56 * this case, the real MAC is in 'local-mac-address', and 'mac-address' exists
57 * but is all zeros.
