Calling free for the OF property can result in a kernel panic, as the
buffer in question might be referenced elsewhere. Also, it is not
removed from the tree.
Always allocate a new property and updating the tree with it fixes both
issues.

In the current state, nvmem cells are only detected on platform device.
To quickly fix the problem, we register the affected problematic driver
with the of_platform but that is more an hack than a real solution.
Backport from net-next the required patch so that nvmem can work also
with non-platform devices and rework our current patch.
Drop the mediatek and dsa workaround and rework the ath10k patches.
Rework every driver that use the of_get_mac_address api.

The label-mac logic relies on the mac-address property of a netdev
devices of-node. However, the mac address can also be stored as a
different property or read from e.g. an mtd device.
Create this node when reading a mac-address from OF if it does not
already exist and copy the mac-address used for the device to this
property. This way, the MAC address can be accessed using procfs.
