[OpenWrt-Devel] [PATCH v2 07/14] ath79/mikrotik: don't use mtd-mac-address in DTS

[Thibaut VARÈNE]

As evidenced here[1] the device MAC address can be stored at a random
offset in the hard_config partition. Rely on sysfs to update the MAC
address correctly.

Note: this will trigger a harmless kernel message during boot:
ag71xx 19000000.eth: invalid MAC address, using random address

There is no clean workaround to prevent this message from being emitted.
