if_dc + EN5251 + incorrect MAC address

Hi,
I had a 4.7-STABLE machine with three same type NICs (Accton Technology
Corporation / EN5251-Based Fast Ethernet Adapter). Ifconfig reports the same
08:00:08:00:08:00 MAC address for all three cards. I've searched the
mailing lists for similar problems and found some threads on the issue with
some PR links that have it fixed. Yesterday I've updated the machine to
4.9-STABLE, but it did not fix anything. There are some patches in the
PR-s, but the latest if_dc.c file does not have such lines. Was this problem
fixed some other way that just does not work with this card, or was the fix
forgotten? One PR ends with 'will be MFC-d for 4.8-RELEASE', the other
simply says 'it's been fixed in both CURRENT and STABLE'.
