Subject: [RFC/PATCH] net: ethernet: nixge: Use of_get_mac_address()
Date: Thu, 26 Apr 2018 14:57:42 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180426215742.18966-1-mdf@kernel.org> (raw)

Make nixge driver work with 'mac-address' property instead of
'address' property. There are currently no in-tree users and
the only users of this driver are devices that use overlays
we control to instantiate the device together with the corresponding
FPGA images.

Hi David, Rob,

with Mike's change that enable the generic 'mac-address'
binding that I barely missed with the submission of this
driver I was wondering if we can still change the binding.

I'm aware that this generally is a nonono case, since the binding
is considered API, but since there are no users outside of our
devicetree overlays that we ship with our devices I thought I'd ask.

If you don't think that's a good idea do you think supporting both
would be worthwhile?

Thanks,

Moritz
