Currently there is a device tree entry called "local-mac-address" which can be filled by the bootloader or manually set.This is useful when the user does not want to use the MAC address programmed into the SoC. Currently, the davinci_emac reads the MAC from the DT, copies it from pdata->mac_addr to priv->mac_addr, then blindly overwrites it by reading from registers in the SoC, and falls back to a random MAC if it's still not valid. This completely ignores any MAC address in the device tree. In order to use the local-mac-address, check to see if the contents of priv->mac_addr are valid before falling back to reading from the SoC when the MAC address is not valid.
