Busy wait in network initialization

[Sebastian Huber]

Hello,

in the function rtems_bsdnet_initialize() which is called early during network 
initialization we have this:

	/*
	 * Ensure that `seconds' is greater than 0
	 */
     while (rtems_bsdnet_seconds_since_boot() == 0)
         rtems_task_wake_after(1);

Why is this nearly one second busy wait necessary, if we initialize the network 
during system startup?

I removed this loop and the network seems to work normally.
