Jakub Kicinski f2edaa4ad5 net: virtio: use eth_hw_addr_set() 
Commit 406f42fa0d ("net-next: When a bond have a massive amount
of VLANs...") introduced a rbtree for faster Ethernet address look
up. To maintain netdev->dev_addr in this tree we need to make all
the writes to it go through appropriate helpers.

Even though the current code uses dev->addr_len the we can switch
to eth_hw_addr_set() instead of dev_addr_set(). The netdev is
always allocated by alloc_etherdev_mq() and there are at least two
places which assume Ethernet address:
 - the line below calling eth_hw_addr_random()
 - virtnet_set_mac_address() -> eth_commit_mac_addr_change()

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
