Some hardware fails to report the permanent MAC address for `macchanger -p`. To deal with it we simply record the MAC address before and after trying to spoof it, and compare them. However, since macchanger truly picks a random value, it can randomly pick the real MAC address so there's a 1/2^24 probability that nothing really fails but the fail safe will trigger any way.
