3. mac randomization should be enabled by

CONFIG_SYS_LOCAL_MAC_RANDOMIZATION macro 4. For mvgbe uses it should be enabled by default in include/configs/mv-common.h. 5. for corner case like edminiv2, in should be undefed in board config file 6. Some documentation should be supported for this generic framework.
