[PATCH v4] net: usb: rtl8150: set random MAC address when set_ethernet_addr() fails

[Anant Thazhemadam]

When get_registers() fails in set_ethernet_addr(),the uninitialized
value of node_id gets copied over as the address.
So, check the return value of get_registers().

If get_registers() executed successfully (i.e., it returns
sizeof(node_id)), copy over the MAC address using ether_addr_copy()
(instead of using memcpy()).

Else, if get_registers() failed instead, a randomly generated MAC
address is set as the MAC address instead.

Changes in v4:
	* Use netdev_notice() instead of dev_warn() and update the 
	  logged message to show the new random MAC as well 
	  (Suggested by Joe Perches <joe@xxxxxxxxxxx>)
	* Convert set_ethernet_addr()'s return type back to void.
	  Since we're not treating get_registers() (and thus 
	  set_ethernet_addr()) failing as an erroneous condition,
	  we can perform the error handling (setting a random
	  ethernet address) that was being done in v3 within 
	  set_ethernet_addr() itself.
	  (Suggested by Petko Manolov <petkan@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>)

Changes in v3:
	* Set a random MAC address to the device rather than making
	  the device not work at all in the even set_ethernet_addr()
	  fails. (Suggested by David Miller <davem@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>)
	* Update set_ethernet_addr() to use ether_addr_copy() to copy 
	  the MAC Address (instead of using memcpy() for that same).
	  (Suggested by Joe Perches <joe@xxxxxxxxxxx>)


Changes in v2:
	* Modified condition checking get_registers()'s return value to 
		ret == sizeof(node_id)
	  for stricter checking in compliance with the new 
	  usb_control_msg_recv() API 
	  (Suggested by Petko Manolov <petkan@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>)
