We keep ethernet addresses either in binary or in text form at a couple
of places, e.g. device tree, device parameters, struct net_device,
... etc. We have memcmp() and strcmp() respectively to compare each, add
one more function to compare a text string with binary. This will be
used in a follow up commit.
