net: ethernet: mtk_eth_soc: handle probe deferral
Move the call to of_get_ethdev_address to mtk_add_mac which is part of the probe function and can hence itself return -EPROBE_DEFER should of_get_ethdev_address return -EPROBE_DEFER. This allows us to entirely get rid of the mtk_init function. The problem of of_get_ethdev_address returning -EPROBE_DEFER surfaced in situations in which the NVMEM provider holding the MAC address has not yet be loaded at the time mtk_eth_soc is initially probed. In this case probing of mtk_eth_soc should be deferred instead of falling back to use a random MAC address, so once the NVMEM provider becomes available probing can be repeated.
