Subject: [PATCH net-next 1/2] net: qlcnic: fix warning for incorrect type
 in argument

The commit 6878f79a8b71e8c7b0587a1185584f54fd31f185
(net: qlcnic: slight optimization of addr compare)
cause a warning "sparse: incorrect type in argument 2
(different type sizes)", so fix it.

I think julia will convert ether_addr_equal to ether_addr_equal_64bits later.
