Some guest operating systems' drivers (Mac OS X in particular) fail to
properly initialize the Receive Address registers (probably expecting
them to be pre-initialized by an earlier component, such as a proprietary
BIOS). This patch pre-initializes the RA registers, allowing OS X
networking to function properly. Other guest operating systems are not
affected, and free to (re)initialize these registers during boot.
