I will change it to "ethernet-mac-syscon" to indicate the MMIO nature of
the node. eFuse might give the wrong impression, despite the fact that
the contents of the register are based on the contents of an eFuse.

I will post the v3 patch with the following changes:
1. Rename "cpsw-mac-efuse" as "ethernet-mac-syscon"
2. Rename "cpsw_mac_efuse" as "cpsw_mac_syscon"
