Subject: [net-next-2.6 PATCH] igbvf, ixgbevf: use dev_hw_addr_random

From: Stefan Assmann <sassmann@...hat.com>

Both igbvf and ixgbevf should set addr_assign_type to NET_ADDR_RANDOM
so udev creates persistent net rules by matching the device path.
Do this by using the dev_hw_addr_random helper function.
