net: usb: usbnet: restore usb%d name exception for local mac addresses

commit 2ea3964 upstream.

commit 8a7d12d ("net: usb: usbnet: fix name regression") assumed
that local addresses always came from the kernel, but some devices hand
out local mac addresses so we ended up with point-to-point devices with
a mac set by the driver, renaming to eth%d when they used to be named
usb%d.

Userspace should not rely on device name, but for the sake of stability
restore the local mac address check portion of the naming exception:
point to point devices which either have no mac set by the driver or
have a local mac handed out by the driver will keep the usb%d name.

(some USB LTE modems are known to hand out a stable mac from the locally
administered range; that mac appears to be random (different for
mulitple devices) and can be reset with device-specific commands, so
while such devices would benefit from getting a OUI reserved, we have
to deal with these and might as well preserve the existing behavior
to avoid breaking fragile openwrt configurations and such on upgrade.)
