smsc911x: allow setting of mac address



This patch replaces the generic eth_mac_addr function with one that
also updates the hardware mac address registers.  It also renames the
existing smsc911x_set_mac_address function to
smsc911x_hw_set_mac_address for clarity.

Newer LAN911x and all LAN921x devices also support changing the mac
address while the device is running, which is useful for some bonding
modes.
