net: create netdev->dev_addr assignment helpers
[ Upstream commit 48eab831ae8b9f7002a533fa4235eed63ea1f1a3 ] Recent work on converting address list to a tree made it obvious we need an abstraction around writing netdev->dev_addr. Without such abstraction updating the main device address is invisible to the core. Introduce a number of helpers which for now just wrap memcpy() but in the future can make necessary changes to the address tree. Signed-off-by:Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org> Signed-off-by:
