There's a file in the identity partition called "usb"... it contains a
MAC address prepended with U: ... it seems it's intended to the be the
unique Ethernet over USB MAC address.  So that's what I used.

If by dev_addr you mean the GTA02 client side one, it's far less
critical than the host one which is set by these patches... I don't
think anything exists that cares in GTA02 context.  So I don't think we
need to get into a big deal about allocating ourselves another GUID one
for the device side.

~From my laptop -->

eth0: register 'cdc_ether' at usb-0000:00:1d.1-1, CDC Ethernet Device,
00:1f:11:01:24:03  <--- the address from identity partition on GTA02.
