ok. I have briefly looked at the whole series and I think that this
should be done in the core because this should be shared across all
drivers.
Because what you have above make in general sense for every board which
contain mac address in eeprom.
That's why I would create

eeprom_read_rom_etheaddr() in core which will do stuff as you have above
and in driver we will simply assign it to read_rom_hwaddr in drivers or
by default for all with options to rewrite it.
This function will be empty when !NET_ETHADDR_EEPROM.

By this or similar way you open this to all ethernet drivers to read mac
just through enabling Kconfig.

IMHO doesn't make sense to c&p the same logic over all ethernet drivers.

Thanks,
Michal
