You mean from the MLO? Is CONFIG_PARAMETER disabled? If yes I understand
the problem. Could you try this patch?
Please ignore the discards const compiler warning for now.

Subject: [PATCH] net: eth: Do not rely on CONFIG_PARAMETER to be enabled

register_preset_mac_address only works when CONFIG_PARAMETER
is enabled because otherwise dev_set_param is a no-op. Add a
function to set the MAC address explicitly without the need
of CONFIG_PARAMETER and use it where appropriate.
