[PATCH 05/12] backports: Add device_get_mac_address()

[Hauke Mehrtens <hauke@hauke-m.de>]

This was added in commit 4c96b7dc0d39 ("Add a matching set of device_
functions for determining mac/phy") and is used by ath10k now. On kernel
< 3.18 call of_property_read_u8_array() only because the device_
function was only added in kernel 3.18.

+ * @alen:	Length of the buffer pointed to by addr, should be ETH_ALEN
+ *
+ * Search the firmware node for the best MAC address to use.  'mac-address' is

+ * address. If that isn't set, then 'local-mac-address' is checked next,
+ * because that is the default address.  If that isn't set, then the obsolete
+ * 'address' is checked, just in case we're using an old device tree.
+ *
+ * Note that the 'address' property is supposed to contain a virtual address of
+ * the register set, but some DTS files have redefined that property to be the
+ * MAC address.
+ *
+ * All-zero MAC addresses are rejected, because those could be properties that
+ * exist in the firmware tables, but were not updated by the firmware.  For
+ * example, the DTS could define 'mac-address' and 'local-mac-address', with
+ * zero MAC addresses.  Some older U-Boots only initialized 'local-mac-address'.
+ * In this case, the real MAC is in 'local-mac-address', and 'mac-address'
+ * exists but is all zeros.
