of/net: Move of_get_mac_address() to a common source file.
There are two identical implementations of of_get_mac_address(), one
each in arch/powerpc/kernel/prom_parse.c and
arch/microblaze/kernel/prom_parse.c. Move this function to a new
common file of_net.{c,h} and adjust all the callers to include the new
header.
