ep93xx-eth: check for zero MAC address on probe, not on device open
If we happen to have registered the driver without passing a MAC address, we will print a zero MAC address and register the interface with this invalid address, this is confusin. This patch moves the checking of a valid ethernet address and the generation of a random one down from the open function to the probe function.
