Many drivers that read the MAC address from EEPROM or MTD emit a log
message when they succeed. Since this function is meant to be reused
in those drivers instead of reimplementing the same operation
everywhere, add an info message when we successfully read the MAC
address.
Hi Bartosz

This makes eth_platform_get_mac_address() generally more verbose,
which i guess people won't like. To keep it backwards compatible, it
would be better to issue the message just when EEPROM to MTD is used.
