Merge branch 'dev_addr-fw-helpers'

Jakub Kicinski says:

====================
net: add a helpers for loading netdev->dev_addr from FW

We're trying to make all writes to netdev->dev_addr go via helpers.
A lot of places pass netdev->dev_addr to of_get_ethdev_address() and
device_get_ethdev_addr() so this set adds new functions which wrap
the functionality.

v2 performs suggested code moves, adds a couple additional clean ups
on the device property side, and an extra patch converting drivers
which can benefit from device_get_ethdev_address().

v3 removes OF_NET and corrects kdoc.
