Hi Simon,

For USB Ethernet devices we need to use the usbethaddr environment variable (instead of ethaddr) the Ethernet hardware address. Add this to the uclass so that it happens automatically.
I have always thought that this approach of having a separate prefix for usbethaddr was a smelly hack. Are we sure we want to propagate it here? Can we not just use dev->seq? It should already be unique in the DM, right? I was really looking forward to that all going away.
Ah, OK, sorry. Do you think we need a way of specifying the eth interface # as we do with aliases at present? We did have one but Han has just removed it :-)
Otherwise we'll just end up counting up from the last 'fixed' ethernet interface. Maybe that is good enough.
