[PATCH] net: usbnet: update addr_assign_type if appropriate

[PATCH] net: usbnet: update addr_assign_type if appropriate

[Bjørn Mork]

This module generates a common default address on init,
using eth_random_addr. Set addr_assign_type to let
userspace know the address is random unless it was
overridden by the minidriver.

David,

I see that this patch is marked "Changes Requested" in patchworks:
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/269030/

But I haven't seen any request for changes, only Olivers ack. And that's
all patchworks has recorded as well. Did I miss something?

Your v2 of this series is all marked as Under Review.

You have to understand, wrt. your initial submission, when someone
asks for changes in one of the patches in a series I mark the whole
series as changes requested.

This gives a second level of reminder that when one patch needs changes
I expect the entire series to be resubmitted.

Huh?  This patch was never part of any series.  There are no references
or numbering in it.  I sent it as a standalone patch because the fix was
different and not depending on the other addr_assign_type changes.

I was hoping to get this fix, via the series.  When we have multiple instances
of the same bug it makes no sense to just fix one, especially now that you're
done the work to do all of them already.

I see.  Sorry for not catching that earlier.
