[PATCH v3] kni: fix device address set

["Min Hu (Connor)" <humin29@huawei.com>]

Currently, run KNI APP When Kernel version is 5.17. When quit the APP,
dmesg buffer get calltrace, info like:

[ 6245.598157] rte_kni: Creating kni...

The reason is that 5.17 kernel introduce 'dev_addr_shadow' in function
'dev_addr_set' to ensure that netdev->dev_addr should only be modified
via helpers('dev_addr_set'). 'dev_addr_check' will check if
netdev->dev_addr is modified by other ways, like 'memcpy'.

More info could get by referring to kernel patch:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/netdevbpf/patch/
20211118041501.3102861-8-kuba@kernel.org/
https://www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg764992.html

Fixes: ea6b39b5b847 ("kni: remove ethtool support")

v3:
* fix compiling errors.

v2:
* change 'memcpy' to 'ether_addr_copy' to copy device addr.
