+Subject: [PATCH] of_net: add mac-address-increment support
+
+Lots of embedded devices use the mac-address of other interface
+extracted from nvmem cells and increments it by one or two. Add two
+bindings to integrate this and directly use the right mac-address for
+the interface. Some example are some routers that use the gmac
+mac-address stored in the art partition and increments it by one for the
+wifi. mac-address-increment-byte bindings is used to tell what byte of
+the mac-address has to be increased (if not defined the last byte is
+increased) and mac-address-increment tells how much the byte decided
+early has to be increased.
