On some platforms ACPI method `\\_SB.AMAC` is dynamic and changes to it can influence changing the behavior of MAC pass through and what MAC address is used. When running USB reset, re-read the MAC address to use to support tools that change the policy. This is quite similar to using `SIOCSIFHWADDR` except that the actual MAC to use comes from ASL rather than from userspace. Changes from v1: * Remove an extra unneeded `ether_addr_copy` call * Use `dev_set_mac_address` to ensure all notifiers are called * Shuffle functions to allow code re-use.
