Petr Štetiar 265749861a of_net: remove nvmem-mac-address property
In commit d01f449c00 ("of_net: add NVMEM support to
of_get_mac_address") I've added `nvmem-mac-address` property which was
wrong idea as I've allocated the property with devm_kzalloc and then
added it to DT, so then 2 entities would be refcounting the allocation.
So if the driver unbinds, the buffer is freed, but DT code would be
still referencing that memory.

I'm removing this property completely instead of fixing it, as it's not
needed to have it.

Fixes: d01f449c00 ("of_net: add NVMEM support to of_get_mac_address")

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
