[PATCH][NET] several cleanups and bugfixes for fec.c: don't munge MAC address from platform data

When the MAC address is supplied via platform_data it should be OK as
it is and should not be modified in case of a dual FEC setup.
Also copying the MAC from platform_data to the single 'macaddr'
variable will overwrite the MAC for the first interface in case of a
dual FEC setup.
