Merge branch 'hw_addr_set'
Jakub Kicinski says:
====================
Use netdev->dev_addr write helpers (part 1)
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.
This is the first installment of predictably tedious conversion.
It tackles:
memcpy(netdev->dev_addr, something, ETH_ADDR)
and
ether_addr_copy(netdev->dev_addr, something)
replacing both with eth_hw_addr_set().
The first 7 patches are done entirely by sparse.
Next 4 were semi-manual because the sparse conversion
resulted in errors.
