[U-Boot] [PATCH v3] sunxi: On newer SoCs use words 1-3 instead of just word 3 from the SID

[Hans de Goede]

It seems that bytes 13-14 of the SID / bytes 1-2 from word 3 of the SID
are always 0 on H3 making it a poor candidate to use as source for the
serialnr / mac-address, and the other non constant words (1 and 2) also
have quite a few bits which are the same for some boards,

This commits switches to using the crc32 of words 1 - 3 to get a
more unique value for the mac-address / serialnr.

Changes in v3:
-Use crc32 instead of ex-or-ing the bytes together
-Use new algorithm on all newer SoCs
-Only check for sid[0] != 0 to capture non initialized sid-s.
Changes in v2:
-ex-or all 3 words together instead of picking a different word
