  Log:
  Remove improper use of if_addrhead in device drivers to check
  if the link-level address has been initialized already.
  
  The majority of modern drivers never does this and works fine, which
  makes me think that the check is totally unnecessary and a residue
  of cut&paste from other drivers.
  
  This change is done to simplify locking because now almost none of the
  drivers uses this field. The exceptions are "ct" "ctau" and "cx"
  where i am not sure if i can remove that part.
