Use eth_hw_addr_random() instead of calling random_ether_addr()
to set addr_assign_type correctly to NET_ADDR_RANDOM.
Reset the state to NET_ADDR_PERM as soon as the MAC get
changed via .ndo_set_mac_address.
v2: adapt to renamed eth_hw_addr_random()

Based on finds for Stephen Rothwell, where current defconfig's
enable a ethernet driver and it is not compiled due to the newly
added NET_VENDOR_* component of Kconfig.
This patch enables all the "new" Kconfig options so that current
defconfig's will continue to compile the expected drivers. In
addition, by enabling all the new Kconfig options does not add
any un-expected options.
