Use dev_hw_addr_random() instead of calling random_ether_addr() to set addr_assign_type correctly to NET_ADDR_RANDOM. Couldn't replace random_ether_addr() in enic_probe() since enic_set_mac_addr() is used which would reset addr_assign_type. Instead set addr_assign_type directly to NET_ADDR_RANDOM in case of random mac after call enic_set_mac_addr(). Reset the state to NET_ADDR_PERM as soon as the MAC get changed via .ndo_set_mac_address. v2: use bitops, adapt to eth_hw_addr_random(), add a comment Signed-off-by: Danny Kukawka <redacted>
