Subject: [PATCH] enetc: Enable live mac addr change for PF

Use device flag IFF_LIVE_ADDR_CHANGE to signal that
the device supports changing the primary mac address
for a ENETC port, when the PF eth interface is running.
This capability is required by certain applications,
like bonding mode 6 (Adaptive Load Balancing).
