Currently, we have mctp_address_ok(), which checks if an EID is in the
"valid" range of 8-254 inclusive. However, 0 and 255 may also be valid
addresses, depending on context. 0 is the NULL EID, which may be set
when physical addressing is used. 255 is valid as a destination address
for broadcasts.
This change renames mctp_address_ok to mctp_address_unicast, and adds
similar helpers for broadcast and null EIDs, which will be used in an
upcoming commit.

Add neighbour source flag in mctp_neigh_remove(...) to allow removal of
only static neighbours.
This should be a no-op change and might be useful later when mctp can
have MCTP_NEIGH_DISCOVER neighbours.

Currently, we tie the struct mctp_dev lifetime to the underlying struct
net_device, and hold/put that device as a proxy for a separate mctp_dev
refcount. This works because we're not holding any references to the
mctp_dev that are different from the netdev lifetime.
In a future change we'll break that assumption though, as we'll need to
hold mctp_dev references in a workqueue, which might live past the
netdev unregister notification.
In order to support that, this change introduces a refcount on the
mctp_dev, currently taken by the net_device->mctp_ptr reference, and
released on netdev unregister events. We can then use this for future
references that might outlast the net device.
