We have created a device tree overlay file (am335x-icev2-prueth-overlay.dtso)
that will disable CPSW nodes defined in "am335x-icev2.dts" and enables the PRUETH
nodes at boot time depending on pin configuration. We will update the Makefile to
merge it with the base DTS to generate a device tree binary.

We will post the revised version v3 shortly.

Thanks and Regards,
