[PATCH v2 1/2] arm64: dts: meson-gxbb-odroidc2: read the Ethernet MAC address from eFuse

[Fil Dunsky via B4 Relay <devnull+filipp.dunsky.gmail.com@kernel.org>]

From: Fil Dunsky <filipp.dunsky@gmail.com>

The vendor programs a unique factory MAC address into the SoC eFuse at
offset 0x34, where meson-gx.dtsi already describes the eth_mac nvmem
cell.  Reference the cell from the Ethernet controller so the kernel
picks up the factory address itself instead of depending on the
bootloader to populate local-mac-address, or falling back to a random
one when it does not.

The cell is 16 bytes long in meson-gx.dtsi, while
of_get_mac_address_nvmem() only accepts a cell of exactly ETH_ALEN
bytes, so narrow it to the 6 bytes of the address for this board.

Tested on an ODROID-C2 with the bootloader's MAC fixup out of the way
(ethernet0 alias removed from the DTB): with the 16-byte cell the
driver falls back to a random address, with the 6-byte cell eth0 comes
up with the factory address from the eFuse.
