Subject: [PATCH 1/2] bcm43xx-d80211: check for valid MAC address in SPROM (#2)
Date: Thu, 11 May 2006 01:11:00 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20060511011100.4a16a06c@localhost> (raw)
Sorry for the mistake. Now diffed against the right port :). Please apply
to wireless-dev.

Check for valid MAC address in SPROM fields instead of relying on PHY type
while setting the MAC address in the networking subsystem, as some devices
have multiple PHYs.
