 This was discussed in D1858.  epairNa and epairNb never have the same
 L2 addr because eaddr[5] is unique.  If the goal of this change is to
 prevent a conflict of L2 addrs with epairNs created in another vnet
 jail on the same system or on the same network, eaddr[5] of epairNa
 (around l.839) must also be randomized at least.

 While I am still for a deterministic value because changing the L2
 addr every time when rebooting a vnet jail is annoying, but if we use
 some random numbers for the vendor bits, I think eaddr[2] should be
 initialized in the same way.
