[U-Boot-Users] [PATCH] net: add 'ethtoggle' environment variable

[Matthias Fuchs]

Hi Ben,

'ethtoggle' is the result of a discussion on irc some hours ago.
Arguments have been: no 'eth' prefix and underscore (because 'ethprime' and 'ethact').
It was clear that the name of the variable would be most difficult site of
its implementation.

If you suggest a better name, I am willing to rename it:-)
