The lengcy guests don't have mac programming command, we don't know when
it's safe to use MAC. This patch changed qemu to makes MAC change effect
when the last byte of MAC is written to config space.
MAC address takes first 6 bytes of config space of virtio-net, the addr
is 5 when the last byte is written in virtio_config_writeb().
MAC change will effect when n->mac is updated in virtio_net_set_config().
