Use more generic eth_platform_get_mac_address() which can get a MAC
address from other than DT platform specific sources too. Check if the
obtained address is valid.

Failure to probe a MAC address should result in the selection of a
random one. This way, the interface still comes up and is usable
even when the MAC address fails to be probed.
True, however this behavior is not changed after this patch is applied,
I would argue that this should be a separate patch.
