[TRIVIAL PATCH] Correctly print MAC address of BMAC

Hello!

Sorry for crosspost, not sure what list would be right.

The BMAC driver (drivers/net/bmac.c) in Linux 2.6.5-rc2 prints the MAC
address incorrectly:

 00:50:e4:40:9e:43<6>eth0: BMAC+ at

Somehow the loop to print the address was moved before the code that
prints the rest of the line.  The attached patch fixes that.  Now that
line appears in the kernel log as

eth0: BMAC+ at 00:50:e4:40:9e:43
