Yup. Apparently the Linux device trees have both, and a commit in Linux
5.15 switched the beaglebone from the one representation style to the
other.

Eh, well yes and no. If it causes a regression because our drivers
aren't expecting the changes in the .dts then it's a question of "does
anyone actually adjust our drivers?". I don't have the machine, so
instead of re-writing cpsw(4) to fit the new-style I'd rather have a
small revert that makes OpenBSD continue to work on the machine.

Either local-mac-address or from hardware registers. For cpsw(4) it's
local-mac-address. U-Boot configures those on bootup. Usually there
needs to be a /aliases/ethernet0 or so pointing to the correct node for
U-Boot to set it correctly. It's possible that this changes as well.
I will have a look.
