The PF control message will interrupt the assigning MAC address for
VF when PF physical link down, and the VF reset operation returns
the IXGBE_ERR_INVALID_MAC_ADDR. In this case, reuses the MAC address
from eth_ixgbevf_dev_init() directly, no need care of PF assignment.

Fixes: f69166c9a3c9 ("net/ixgbe: fix reset error handling")
