Checking if MAC address is valid using is_valid_ether_addr() is already done in
of_get_mac_address(). While at it, reorganize checking so it matches checks in
other drivers.

I've seen you use three inconsistent Subject prefixes here, pick a scheme
and stick to it please!

First patch was:

netdev: ${driver_name}:

Second patch was:

net: ${driver_name}:

Third patch was:

patch/to/driver/directory:

This is really not acceptable.  Just using "${driver_name}: " is good
enough.

True. I have sent it that way because I've followed the commit
schematics of each driver individually.

It's not a problem to resend them... But I'm wondering should this be
squashed into one patch?
