net: dsa: mv88e6xxx: setup random mac address
An Ethernet switch may support having a MAC address, which can be used as the switch's source address in transmitted full-duplex Pause frames. If a DSA switch supports the related .set_addr operation, the DSA core sets the master's MAC address on the switch. This won't make sense anymore in a multi-CPU ports system, because there won't be a unique master device assigned to a switch tree. Instead, setup the switch from within the Marvell driver with a random MAC address, and remove the .set_addr implementation.
