net: Add non-RCU dev_getbyhwaddr() helper

Browse source 
Add dedicated helper for finding devices by hardware address when
holding rtnl_lock, similar to existing dev_getbyhwaddr_rcu(). This prevents
PROVE_LOCKING warnings when rtnl_lock is held but RCU read lock is not.

Extract common address comparison logic into dev_addr_cmp().
