[U-Boot] [PATCH 0/2] Ethernet name length changes

The ethernet name should be within the ETH_NAME_LEN, as this
is the buffer space allocated to ethernet name.
Otherwise, this causes buffer overflow.
At the same time the 16 char ethernet name size is inadequate to hold the
name of ethernet "DPMAC17 at rgmii-id", which is a valid name in upcoming
LX2160AQDS/LX2160ARDB boards.
These patches try to solve the above two issues:
1. first patch honors the limit imposed by ETH_NAME_LEN on ethernet name
2. second patch increases this limit to accommodate the requirements of
LX2160AQDS/LX2160ARDB
