Remove first-boot-set-mac service for IBM machines
- This commit removes the first-boot-set-mac service as the
similar and a better functionaly is now implemented in
phosphor-networkd service.
- Here are the few disadvantages of the first-boot-set-mac service
1. The first-boot-set-mac is a script is not scalable with the
increase in the number of ethernet interfaces.
2. Why do we need a new service just for setting the MAC Address
when the network service alone can do it , and it makes sense
to tie up this feature with Network as setting MAC address
functionality is implemented and owned by networkd.
3. With first-boot-set MAC, we need to make sure the VPD is populated
before , if for any reason the VPD is not generated the first-boot
service cannot help set the MAC.
