net: usb: pegasus: Proper error handing when setting pegasus' MAC address
v2:
If reading the MAC address from eeprom fail don't throw an error, use randomly
generated MAC instead. Either way the adapter will soldier on and the return
type of set_ethernet_addr() can be reverted to void.
v1:
Fix a bug in set_ethernet_addr() which does not take into account possible
errors (or partial reads) returned by its helpers. This can potentially lead to
writing random data into device's MAC address registers.
