I just gave this a quick try on omap3-evm with wl1271, now I get
mac address of 00:00:00:00:00:01 :) So looks like at least wl1271 needs
to use the random mac address here.

Note that we should now have struct wilink_family_data available
so maybe that can be used to check if the hardware mac address
exists?

Tony
