Revert "generic: add mac-address property for NVMEM mac addresses"

This reverts commit b30924873062be47250e6b872347461c8221688d.

This commit could create a property without allocated memory, breaking
subsequent reads over a nodes property. Also, the mac-address-increment
was not applied when reading from nvmem.

Revert this commit for now, which breaks the label-mac-address logic.
Possibly, traversing the device-tree from the netdev side is easier
anyways.

-Subject: [PATCH] generic: add mac-address property for NVMEM mac addresses
-
-Traversing the device-tree by referencing a network device to determine
-a devices labe-mac does not work with the generic nvmem implementation,
-as the userspace expects the MAC-address to be available as a
-device-tree property.
-
-The legacy mtd-mac-address implementation did create such a node. Do the
-same when using the nvmem implementation to allow reading the MAC
-address.
-
-Fixes commit d284e6ef0f06 ("treewide: convert mtd-mac-address-increment*
-to generic implementation")
