You mean if (ret), right? (i.e., ret == 0 is success)

BTW, there are some other places in that file where the return
status form i40e_aq_add_macvlan() is ignored, which makes this a bit
confusing ..

Odd, what sort of compile warning? I dont see that on my x86 
machine (and I dont have CONFIG_OF either), and kbuild-test-robot
did not catch that either, afaict. Perhaps you are missing some 
include files?

Without the dp definition, of_get_mac_address() further below
will not find a "dp".

Rest of the comments are addressed in v8 that I just sent out.
