Thanks for going back and forth on this to make it right.

I consider this one of the primary purposes that board-specific init exists
for Ethernet. I think this will help to eliminate them. I'm interested in
your thoughts about how to generically expose this to a board / SoC /
driver. For now I was thinking that it would be up to the driver to fan out
if needed, meaning that if the driver doesn't know the MAC, it has a
board-hook function call, but if it does, like USB or PCI adapters, it
won't have board hooks. [sorry for the run-on sentence] I feel it's
non-ideal, but can work for now.

What in the asm headers affects the dm headers? Or is it an aesthetics
request?

In the current implementation it will return any device (probe-able or
not), as it is the caller that has the logic to decide how to move on or
not.

I can evaluate that, but it is not currently expected anywhere.

This can return the error from the probe(), but is the probe fails it also
return a NULL pointer, which is what I'm using to determine success. I
can't return the device in the error case because uclass_first_device()
doesn't give it to me.

The device_probe() function already has that check, so I didn't bother
adding it again here.

I'm not sure what other error it would return. If it's just the NULL
pointer, the caller knows what it passed in. NULL pointer is valid here.
Essentially asking to unset this device as current (as in pre_unbind
handler).

There is a case where it is not redundant. If the eth_set_dev() is called
with a device that fails to probe, then it will be called the current
device, but not be active. This is needed to be able to skip over a device
that won't probe to get to one that will.
