Applied, but this seriously makes eth_mac_addr() completely useless.

Technically, every eth_mac_addr() user in a software/virtual device
should behave the way virtio_net does now.

It therefore probably makes sense to add a boolean arg which when true
elides the netif_running() check then fixup and audit every caller.
