net: deprecate print_mac
We've had %pM for long enough now, time to deprecate print_mac() and remove the __maybe_unused attribute from DECLARE_MAC_BUF so that variables declared with that can be found and removed. Otherwise people are putting in new users of print_mac(). Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
