wl1271: Fix MAC address handling

This patch fixes MAC address handling. To achieve this, firmware booting had
to be delayed from the previous op_start to op_add_interface, which is the point
when the driver gets to know the configured MAC address. As the wl1271 only
supports one virtual interface, this even seems quite logical.
