Some months ago I came up with the very same patch and I currently have
it in my local fork with the description "Reading the MAC address from
ROM is often a standard use case and should not produce a warning".
Therefore I'm supporting Soeren's and Fabio's point of view here and I'm
in favor of merging this patch or if preferred, change the printf() to
debug().
