[PATCH] mx6cuboxi: Fix Ethernet after DT sync with Linux

From: Josua Mayer <josua at solid-run.com>

The i.MX6 Cubox-i and HummingBoards can have different PHYs at varying
addresses. U-Boot needs to auto-detect which phy is actually present,
and at which address it is responding.

Auto-detection from multiple phy nodes specified in device-tree does not
currently work correct. As a work-around merge all three possible phys
into one node with the special address 0xffffffff which indicates to the
generic phy driver to probe all addresses.
Also fixup this fake address before booting Linux, *if* booting with
U-Boot's internal dtb.
