From: Maciej Żenczykowski <m...@google.com>
prior to fetching it from kernel.
Otherwise we run the risk of very tail portion of it (dmac field)
being left entirely uninitialized, and likely containing some sort
of stale data.
It seems to likely be some sort of time (a second's counter).
Tested:
'ethtool -c eth1' with old kernel now reports 'dmac: 0' where
previously it reported some sort of second counter.
