s390/qeth: use diag26c to get MAC address on L2
When a s390 guest runs on a z/VM host that's part of a SSI cluster, it can be migrated to a different host. In this case, the MAC address it originally obtained on the old host may be re-assigned to a new guest. This would result in address conflicts between the two guests. When running as z/VM guest, use the diag26c MAC Service to obtain a hypervisor-managed MAC address. The MAC Service is SSI-aware, and won't re-assign the address after the guest is migrated to a new host. This patch adds support for the z/VM MAC Service on L2 devices.
