That is actually not possible. The permanent MAC-Addresses of hwsim
radios are directly created by there internal ID, which is only
increased for new radios and definitely not reassigned. 

But I would be happy, if this were possible, since it would make some
simulation related stuff easier (currently we need to unload and load
the hwsim module over and over again for every run).
