Subject: [PATCH net-next v3 7/9] eth: fwnode: add a helper for loading netdev->dev_addr

From: Jakub Kicinski <[email-masked]>
Date: Wed, 6 Oct 2021 18:07:00 -0700

Commit 406f42fa0d3c ("net-next: When a bond have a massive amount
of VLANs...") introduced a rbtree for faster Ethernet address look
up. To maintain netdev->dev_addr in this tree we need to make all
the writes to it got through appropriate helpers.

There is a handful of drivers which pass netdev->dev_addr as
the destination buffer to device_get_mac_address(). Add a helper
which takes a dev pointer instead, so it can call an appropriate
helper.

v2: spell out address instead of addr in the function name
v3: fix function name in kdoc
