I have just updated U-Boot to v2017.05-rc3, which IIUC includes a fix
for this issue. Any testing feedback appreciated for the new packages:

https://build.opensuse.org/project/show/Base:System:Staging

Upstream patch was "[U-Boot] [PATCH] fdt: Move fdt_fixup_ethernet to a
common place", which says 'Fixes: 3f66149d9fb4 ("Remove extra
fdt_fixup_ethernet() call")'.

Regards,
Andreas
