From: Rafał Miłecki <rafal at milecki.pl>

U-Boot's "ethaddr" environment variable is very often used to store
*base* MAC address. It's used as a base for calculating addresses for
multiple interfaces. It's done by adding proper values. Actual offsets
are picked by manufacturers and vary across devices.
