drivers/r8168: Read default MAC address from CBFS
This driver applies to 10ec:8168
Previously, this driver resetted the nic and set a hardcoded MAC address. Now the driver reads a default MAC address from CBFS in the form of a string: echo -n "xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx" > macaddress and store the macaddress file in CBFS with the same name.
TESTED on GA-G41M-ES2L and GA-945GCM-S2L: MAC address was detected
