The following series adds some code to generate legal, locally administered MAC addresses from OMAP4 CPU Die ID fuse data, and then adds an api to devices.c allowing board files to register device paths for network devices that wish to use them. On PandaBoard / ES, two devices have no board-level MAC either assigned by the manufacturer or stored on the board, the last patch in the series adds these device paths and gets them set when the network device is registered. The patches are against today's linux-omap.
I had already provided my Acked-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> when we discussed this last year, and Steven also gave his Tested-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> I have one comment to the second patch, which is changed slightly from the older version. Arnd
