   Repeated thrice, this asks to be put into subroutine...

Yes.  Looking at the driver, this probably goes for most of the three
_bind() functions.  There is a lot of common code there.

But more important wrt the eth_hw_addr_random() change: Does this
actually work with real devices?  The driver implements a
asix_set_mac_address() which writes the address back to the device when
you change it.  I assume there is a reason for doing that.  Why don't
you do it here?
