The sun8i-emac driver works fine with the A64 Ethernet IP, but we are
missing an alias entry to trigger the driver instantiation by U-Boot.
Add the line to point U-Boot to the Ethernet DT node.
This enables TFTP boot on the Pine64.

I think alias doesn’t require for probing emac, it will straight away
probed like
dm tree
....
eth [ + ] ethernet@01c30000
Did you find any issue while detecting eth?
Yes, it just didn't work ;-) I don't have a board here, but can post the
error message later tonight.
....
Net: phy interface7
Error: ethernet@01c30000 address not set.
No ethernet found.
....
In fact I was wondering about that already, maybe it's worth
investigating this further.
So the reason is that CONFIG_NET_RANDOM_ETHADDR isn't defined, so
without the DT alias triggering the SID MAC generation there will be
_no_ MAC address at all, which makes the driver give up.
AFAIK on the A64 the MAC generation from the SID serial number works
just fine, so we should in any case add the alias.
I wondered how the alias related to MAC generation,
See the setup_environment() function in board/sunxi/board.c, we use
the alias-es to determine for which interface we need to generate
a random MAC and set ethaddr / eth1addr in the environment.
