a52ad514fd net: deprecate eth_change_mtu, remove usage
With centralized MTU checking, there's nothing productive done by
eth_change_mtu that isn't already done in dev_set_mtu, so mark it as
deprecated and remove all usage of it in the kernel. All callers have been
audited for calls to alloc_etherdev* or ether_setup directly, which means
they all have a valid dev->min_mtu and dev->max_mtu. Now eth_change_mtu
prints out a netdev_warn about being deprecated, for the benefit of
out-of-tree drivers that might be utilizing it.

Of note, dvb_net.c actually had dev->mtu = 4096, while using
eth_change_mtu, meaning that if you ever tried changing it's mtu, you
couldn't set it above 1500 anymore. It's now getting dev->max_mtu also set
to 4096 to remedy that.

v2: fix up lantiq_etop, missed breakage due to drive not compiling on x86

3274940bd3 drivers: net: Don't print unpopulated net_device name
For ethernet devices, net_device.name will be eth%d before
register_netdev() is called. Don't print the net_device name until
the format string is replaced.

6a05880a8b net: ethernet: Remove superfluous ether_setup after alloc_etherdev
There is no need to call ether_setup after alloc_ethdev since it was
already called there.

Follow commits c706471b26 ("net: axienet: remove unnecessary
ether_setup after alloc_etherdev") and 3c87dcbfb3 ("net: ll_temac:
Remove unnecessary ether_setup after alloc_etherdev") and fix the
pattern in all remaining ethernet drivers.

0ab75ae81d ethernet: Fix FSF address in file headers
Several files refer to an old address for the Free Software Foundation
in the file header comment.  Resolve by replacing the address with
the URL <http://www.gnu.org/licenses/> so that we do not have to keep
updating the header comments anytime the address changes.

c67c71b4e8 net: netx-eth: remove unnecessary casting
Casting from 'void *' is unnecessary, because casting from 'void *'
to any pointer type is automatic.

dfd93c977d net: ethernet: remove unnecessary platform_set_drvdata()
The driver core clears the driver data to NULL after device_release
or on probe failure, since commit 0998d06310
(device-core: Ensure drvdata = NULL when no driver is bound).
Thus, it is not needed to manually clear the device driver data to NULL.

8513fbd880 net: ethernet: use platform_{get,set}_drvdata()
Use the wrapper functions for getting and setting the driver data using
platform_device instead of using dev_{get,set}_drvdata() with &pdev->dev,
so we can directly pass a struct platform_device.

Also, unnecessary dev_set_drvdata() is removed, because the driver core
clears the driver data to NULL after device_release or on probe failure.

720a43efd3 drivers:net: Remove unnecessary OOM messages after netdev_alloc_skb
Emitting netdev_alloc_skb and netdev_alloc_skb_ip_align OOM
messages is unnecessary as there is already a dump_stack
after allocation failures.

Other trivial changes around these removals:

Convert a few comparisons of pointer to 0 to !pointer.
Change flow to remove unnecessary label.
Remove now unused variable.
Hoist assignment from if.
