Subject: [PATCH 2/2] net: hsr/prp: validate address B before copying to skb

Validate MAC address before copying the same to outgoing frame
skb destination address. Since a node can have zero mac
address for Link B until a valid frame is received over
that link, this fix address the issue of a zero MAC address
being in the packet.
