[PATCH RESEND net-next] net: usbnet: update addr_assign_type if appropriate

[Bjørn Mork]

This module generates a common default address on init,
using eth_random_addr. Set addr_assign_type to let
userspace know the address is random unless it was
overridden by the minidriver.

Sorry this patch missed the "addr_assign_type series" where it should
have been.

Applied.
