Subject: [PATCH net] macvlan: remove duplicate check

Following commit 59f997b088d2 ("macvlan: return correct error value"),
there is a duplicate check for mac addresses both in macvlan_sync_address()
and macvlan_set_mac_address().
As the former calls the latter, remove the one in macvlan_set_mac_address()
and move the one in macvlan_sync_address() before any other check.
