I am not so sure about it.

This patch came to be when I wanted to make it convenient for using u-boot to test a platform 
with six eth interface without the need of an fdt.
 
However, I seem to have sparked a discussion of a larger scope than I expected. :)

Everyone's comment seems to indicate that streamlining is needed for the network code.
 
I'd hate to muck the existing code some more with more copy-paste just for convenience's sake.

However, if you are ok with V3 being "V1 minus the common/cmd_bdinfo.c #if defined(CONFIG_HAS_ETH0) hunk" 
then I can post this version.
