[PATCH] of: net: Add option for random mac address

[Iulian Gilca <igilca1980@gmail.com>]

Embedded devices that don't have a fixed mac address may want
to use this property. For example dsa switch ports may use this property in
order avoid setting this from user space. Sometimes, in case of DSA switch
ports is desirable to use a random mac address rather than using the 
conduit interface mac address.

example device tree config :

	....
	netswitch: swdev@5f {
		compatible = "microchip,ksz9897";
		...
		ports {
			port@0 {
				reg = <0>;
				label = "eth0";
				random-address;
			}
			...
		}
	}

	...

This way the switch ports that have the "random-address" property 
will use a random mac address rather than the conduit mac address.

PS. Sorry for the previous malformed patch
