Subject: [PATCH 1/2] mac_pton: support MAC addresses with other delimiters
From: Michael Pratt <mcpratt@...me>
Some network hardware vendors may do something unique
when storing the MAC address into hardware in ASCII,
like using hyphens as the delimiter.
Allow parsing of MAC addresses with a non-standard
delimiter (punctuation other than a colon).
e.g. aa-bb-cc-dd-ee-ff
