Many embedded devices have information such as MAC addresses stored
inside MTD devices. This patch allows us to add a property inside a node
describing a network interface. The new property points at a MTD
partition with an offset where the MAC address can be found.
This patch has originated in OpenWrt some time ago, so in order to
consider usefulness of this patch, here are some real-world numbers
which hopefully speak for themselves:
* mtd-mac-address used 497 times in 357 device tree files
* mtd-mac-address-increment used 74 times in 58 device tree files
* mtd-mac-address-increment-byte used 1 time in 1 device tree file

Reverse christmas tree would look a bit nicer here.

of_property_read_u8() would probably be good here since this can't be
bigger than 5 anyway.

If I use a number greater than and included 128; this will cause a roll
over, should this be range checked? Similarly, using
of_property_read_u8() might be a better fit?
Other than those, LGTM
