device: workaround driver issue with delayed change of MAC address

Browse source 
brcmfmac and possibly other drivers don't change the MAC address
right away, but instead the result is delayed. That is problematic
because we cannot continue activation before the MAC address is
settled.

Add a hack to workaround the issue by waiting until the MAC address
changed.

The previous attempt to workaround this was less intrusive: we would
just refresh the link once and check the result. But that turns out
not to be sufficent for all cases. Now, wait and poll.
