There is no way to set the vif addr from wl1271_register_hw() since no
vif has been created yet. The hardware was only just initialized..

The vif addr is set from the perm address before add_interface is
called (see ieee80211_if_add()). This means the last to write the MAC
address effectively sets the vif addr.
