[PATCH] ARC: AXS10x/HSDK: Allow U-Boot to pass MAC-address to the kernel

Otherwise kernel uses random MAC which is not very conveniet. With that change in place use might set desired MAC in U-Boot with "setenv ethaddr 11:22:33:44:55:66", save environment and then from boot to boot the same MAC will be used by the kernel. One other note for this to happen it's required

[PATCH] ARC: Remove disabled CONFIG_DEVKMEM from defconfigs

[PATCH] ARC: Remove CONFIG_DEFAULT_HOSTNAME from defconfigs

There's no reason to set the same hostname to all ARC boards by default. It usually gets overwritten by init scripts anyways. Signed-off-by: Alexey Brodkin --- arch/arc/configs/axs101_defconfig | 1 - arch/arc/configs/axs103_defconfig | 1 - arch/arc/configs/axs103_smp_defconfi
