BeagleBoard-XM unfortunately is plagued by lack of proper MAC address in USB resulting in custom uEnv.txt and risk of MAC address conflict in the network.
NOTE: a) if user wants to manually set/override the mac address, then they can change the environment variable prior to 'usb start' b) If a new board file would like to create it's own version of this, the weak function can be overriden as well. c) There does not yet seem a need to create a generic fake ethernet MAC address logic, hence, not done pending such a need.

Applied to u-boot-ti/master, thanks!
