Petr Štetiar 2d2924af96 net: ethernet: fix similar warning reported by kbuild test robot
This patch fixes following (similar) warning reported by kbuild test robot:

 In function ‘memcpy’,
  inlined from ‘smsc75xx_init_mac_address’ at drivers/net/usb/smsc75xx.c:778:3,
  inlined from ‘smsc75xx_bind’ at drivers/net/usb/smsc75xx.c:1501:2:
  ./include/linux/string.h:355:9: warning: argument 2 null where non-null expected [-Wnonnull]
  return __builtin_memcpy(p, q, size);
         ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
  drivers/net/usb/smsc75xx.c: In function ‘smsc75xx_bind’:
  ./include/linux/string.h:355:9: note: in a call to built-in function ‘__builtin_memcpy’

I've replaced the offending memcpy with ether_addr_copy, because I'm
100% sure, that of_get_mac_address can't return NULL as it returns valid
pointer or ERR_PTR encoded value, nothing else.

I'm hesitant to just change IS_ERR into IS_ERR_OR_NULL check, as this
would make the warning disappear also, but it would be confusing to
check for impossible return value just to make a compiler happy.

I'm now changing all occurencies of memcpy to ether_addr_copy after the
of_get_mac_address call, as it's very likely, that we're going to get
similar reports from kbuild test robot in the future.
