If the environment variable 'ethaddr' is not set in flash it is read from EEPROM (if valid), set in RAM and now also saved to flash. The same applies for the variable 'serial#'.
I reject this patch. SO far we never to automatically modify environ- ment in flash. All the other TQ boards which do similar things just read the data and set it in the environment, but don't automatically safe it to flash.
