The vf's will start with a zero mac and with upcoming support in fw/driver, a vf mac can be set via the pf. vf's also support ndo_set_mac_address. This decision was made based on the fact that a random mac on a vf is not really needed. And this will reduce some of the problems with the vf's getting a new mac on every driver load/unload (one of them being udev renaming the device on ever load/unload and reboot).
