Subject: [PATCH] drivers:ethernet:davinci_emac.c:Fixes flaw in mac address handling.
Date: Wed,  1 Oct 2014 21:32:05 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1412217125-11057-1-git-send-email-mwelling@ieee.org> (raw)

The code currently checks the mac_addr variable that is clearly
zero'd out during allocation.

Further code is added to bring the mac_addr from the partial pdata.
