Use ether_addr_copy() instead of memcpy() to copy the mac address. Using is_broadcast_ether_addr() and is_zero_ether_addr() instead of testing each byte of the mac[] array for 0xff and 0x00 shortens the code and improves readability. Instead of a fixed default mac address use a random one to reduce the likelihood of mac address collision.
