Miller" <davem@...emloft.net> Subject: [PATCH 4.12 16/52] net: mvpp2: fix the mac address used when using PPv2.2 4.12-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Antoine Tenart <antoine.tenart@...e-electrons.com> [ Upstream commit 4c22868264516fe0c42817a87f37efb44254e7a9 ] The mac address is only retrieved from h/w when using PPv2.1. Otherwise the variable holding it is still checked and used if it contains a valid value. As the variable isn't initialized to an invalid mac address value, we end up with random mac addresses which can be the same for all the ports handled by this PPv2 driver. Fixes this by initializing the h/w mac address variable to {0}, which is an invalid mac address value. This way the random assignation fallback is called and all ports end up with their own addresses.
