Subject: [PATCH] net: fec: Remove macaddr option
Date: Fri, 3 Feb 2012 15:25:04 -0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1328289904-22401-1-git-send-email-fabio.estevam@freescale.com> (raw)
"macaddr" option allows users to pass the MAC address via kernel command line.
Feedbacks from Alan Cox and David Miller (http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-usb/msg57821.html )
mention that this is not a good idea, so remove it.
