mv643xx_eth: Fix use of uninitialized port_num field

In this driver, the default ethernet address is first set by by calling
eth_port_uc_addr_get() which reads the relevant registers of the
corresponding port as initially set by firmware. However that function
used the port_num field accessed through the private area of net_dev
before it was set.

The result was that one board I have ended up with the unicast address
set to 00:00:00:00:00:00 (only port 1 is connected on this board). The
problem appeared after commit 84dd619e4dc3b0b1c40dafd98c90fd950bce7bc5.

This patch fixes the bug by setting mp->port_num prior to calling
eth_port_uc_get_addr().
