The CSR contains garbage after a coldboot on RS/6000.
One some systems (like my 44p 270) the MAC address is all FF,
on others (like my B50) it is ff:ff:ff:fd:ff:6b.

It can eventually be fixed by loading pcnet32, set the interface
into the UP state, rmmod pcnet32 and load it again. But this worked
only on the 270.

Only netbooting after a cold start provides the correct MAC address
via prom and CSR. This makes it very unreliable.
I dont know why the MAC is stored in two different places. Remove
the special case for powerpc, which was added in early 2.4 development.
