In my (tested, working, complete) patch series, I allow platform_data
based override of MAC at usbnet level, so all the drivers can benefit
from it.

Is this not a case of "small thinking" from a Device Tree perspective
that Arnd's patch only targets smsc95xx? Or did I miss some
disadvantage to allowing this functional configuration option at usbnet
layer?
