[U-Boot] [PATCH] sunxi: Explicitly call fdt_fixup_ethernet() in our ft_board_setup()

The sunxi platform relies on the core boot sequence to load and process
device tree blobs, including writing back any MAC addresses we generate
by an implicit call to fdt_fixup_ethernet() within the image loading
mechanism. This call was removed in commit 3f66149d9fb4 ("Remove extra
fdt_fixup_ethernet() call"), resuling in Linux using random MAC
addresses.

This patch adds an explicit call to fdt_fixup_ethernet() in our
ft_board_setup() function.

Fixes: 3f66149d9fb4 ("Remove extra fdt_fixup_ethernet() call")

I wonder, if every platform wants or needs to do this, maybe we should
just do this in a central place instead.
