v2 cover net: add a helpers for loading netdev->dev_addr from platform

Similarly to recently added device_get_ethdev_address() and of_get_ethdev_address() create a helper for drivers loading mac addr from platform data.

nvmem_get_mac_address() does not have driver callers so instead of adding a helper there unexport it.

ethernet: un-export nvmem_get_mac_address()
eth: platform: add a helper for loading netdev->dev_addr
ethernet: use platform_get_ethdev_address()

PATCH v2 1/3 ethernet: un-export nvmem_get_mac_address()

nvmem_get_mac_address() is only called from of_net.c we don't need the export.

PATCH v2 2/3 eth: platform: add a helper for loading netdev->dev_addr

In reply to Jakub Kicinski

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 eth_platform_get_mac_address(). Add a helper which takes a dev pointer instead, so it can call an appropriate helper.

v2: align the temp buffer on the stack

PATCH v2 3/3 ethernet: use platform_get_ethdev_address()

Use the new platform_get_ethdev_address() helper for the cases where dev->dev_addr is passed in directly as the destination.
