The problem is we may well have both.  I think we need to re-work the
function slightly to be:
while ((tmp = getenv(mac)) != NULL) {
  do_fdt_fixup_ethernet_x(tmp, fdt, node, enet, i)
}
if (getenv("usbethaddr"))
  do_fdt_fixup_ethernet_x("usbethaddr", fdt, ...)

Where the name of the new function, and parameter order also makes sense
and is complete of course.  Thanks!
