Title:
  beaglebone: random MAC on boot

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete
Status in linux source package in Trusty:
  Fix Released
Status in linux source package in Utopic:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  SRU Justification:

      Impact: after every reboot, the nic on the beaglebone gets a
  completely different MAC address.

      Fix: Apply the patches, recompile and reboot.

      Testcase: Try booting two times in a row with and without the
  patches applied and check if the MAC address of eth0 changes or not.

  With this series applied:

  ...
  [    2.847766] davinci_mdio 4a101000.mdio: davinci mdio revision 1.6
  [    2.854144] davinci_mdio 4a101000.mdio: detected phy mask fffffffe
  [    2.866722] libphy: 4a101000.mdio: probed
  [    2.871020] davinci_mdio 4a101000.mdio: phy[0]: device 4a101000.mdio:00, driver SMSC LAN8710/LAN8720
  [    2.886827] Detected MACID = 90:59:af:5a:b6:ca
  ...

  and it won't change anymore.
  ---

  On the beaglebone, the NIC keeps getting a random MAC after every
  reboot, making it impossible to associate a static ip with the board:

  [    2.845579] davinci_mdio 4a101000.mdio: detected phy mask fffffffe
  [    2.858195] libphy: 4a101000.mdio: probed
  [    2.862510] davinci_mdio 4a101000.mdio: phy[0]: device 4a101000.mdio:00, driver SMSC LAN8710/LAN8720
  [    2.872364] cpu cpu0: cpu0 regulator not ready, retry
  [    2.878372] Random MACID = ee:7a:fa:cd:13:39
