Revert "usb: gadget: u_ether: use <linux/hex.h> header file"
This reverts commit7a7930c0f9. This commit is being reverted as part of a series-wide revert. By deferring the net_device allocation to the bind() phase, a single function instance will spawn multiple network devices if it is symlinked to multiple USB configurations. This causes regressions for userspace tools (like the postmarketOS DHCP daemon) that rely on reading the interface name (e.g., "usb0") from configfs. Currently, configfs returns the template "usb%d", causing the userspace network setup to fail. Crucially, because this patch breaks the 1:1 mapping between the function instance and the network device, this naming issue cannot simply be patched. Configfs only exposes a single 'ifname' attribute per instance, making it impossible to accurately report the actual interface name when multiple underlying network devices can exist for that single instance. All configurations tied to the same function instance are meant to share a single network device. Revert this change to restore the 1:1 mapping by allocating the network device at the instance level (alloc_inst).
