No where else in this driver is this assumption about the register
lock documented. If you forget it, the low level read/write functions
will tell you. So i don't think it adds value.

kerneldoc wants a : after return.

Does it make sense to check it against the MTU? Does it matter if it
is bigger than the MTU?

Maybe be a bit more specific with the documentation of addr. You pass
a 6 byte address, not a 3 byte OUI. So "The AVB OUI to load" is not
quite correct. It is more like, "Use the OUI from this MAC address."
I've not looked at the big picture, but i was woundering if it makes
more sense to pass an actual OUI? But that is not something we tend to
do in the kernel.

Blank line before the return please.

We probably need to think about this. What about other devices which
require this? Would it be better to extend the netlink API to pass
some sort of owner? If i remember correctly, routes passed by netlink
can indicate which daemon is responsible for it, quagga, zebra, bgp
etc.

This probably answers my question bellow.

Since these are part of a standard, i assume other drivers will need
it as well? These should probably be somewhere common.
