To work around the MacOS situation, a pair of locally-chosen MAC
addresses for host and device could be stored in the environment,
and then passed to the kernel with the following u-boot commands:

setenv bootcmd setenv bootargs \${bootargs_base} \${bootargs_usb} 
\${mtdparts}\; nand read.e 0x32000000 kernel\; bootm 0x32000000

setenv bootargs_usb g_ether.dev_addr=00:01:02:03:04:05 
g_ether.host_addr=06:07:08:09:0a:0b

saveenv

Note that the first byte of each address must be an even number, or this
would be a multicast address, and the kernel would ignore it.
