- net: split eth_mac_addr for better error handling
-
- When we set mac address, software mac address in system and hardware mac
- address all need to be updated. Current eth_mac_addr() doesn't allow
- callers to implement error handling nicely.
-
- This patch split eth_mac_addr() to prepare part and real commit part,
- then we can prepare first, and try to change hardware address, then do
- the real commit if hardware address is set successfully.
