Aspeed platforms: MAC address provisioning

[Patrick Rudolph]

Hi,
I'm looking for the generic "OpenBMC way" of provisioning the BMC MAC
address on platforms with an integrated NIC. In the past there has
been the u-boot "u-boot-initial-env" target to create an environment,
but it's no longer used on u-boot-common-aspeed-sdk_2019.04.

What's the default/common/preferred way of provisioning an unique MAC
address in production? Should it be stored in an I2C EEPROM or should
the u-boot env be created from the running system?
