But to be honest, it seems they are correct for the MX28EVK and not for
the M28EVK. The M28EVK and the M28 module are delivered with their own
MAC address that does not belong to the Freescale's range.

As far as I can see, the M28EVK starts with a Freescale's MAC, and then
the DENX MAC address (Vendor ID C0:E5:4E) is set later to the correct
value when Linux boots.

I can understand this feature in the SOC as a way to set the LSBs of the
MAC address, but leaving to the customer a way to set its own vendor id,
if he bought it.

What about to add a weak function (board_set_mac_vendor, maybe ?) that
can be called at this point to set the vendor id ? The default behavior
should be to set the Freescale's vendor id.

Best regards,
Stefano Babic
