[U-Boot] [PATCH] net: dhcp: Allow "MAY_FAIL" to still try each adapter

[U-Boot] [PATCH] net: dhcp: Allow "MAY_FAIL" to still try each adapter

[Wilson Lee]

From: Joe Hershberger <joe.hershberger@ni.com>

This change allows the "MAY_FAIL" DHCP option to still attempt to
contact a DHCP server on each adapter and only give up once each
adapter has failed once.  To get the existing behavior, set the
already-existing ethrotate=no variable.
