[PATCH net v2 1/6] ethernet: 3com/typhoon: don't write directly to netdev->dev_addr

[Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>]

This driver casts off the const and writes directly to netdev->dev_addr.
This will result in a MAC address tree corruption and a warning.

Compile tested ppc6xx_defconfig.

Fixes: adeef3e32146 ("net: constify netdev->dev_addr")
