In which case is this necessary? Normally a dev_set_param on "ethaddr"
should already set edev->ethaddr, there should be no need to copy this
manually.

Sascha

when booting from ethernet on the AM335x, net_new() (called in net_udp_new)
will check if ethaddr is valid. This check fails, because ethaddr is not
set at this moment and a random MAC will be used.
