Subject: [PATCH] smsc911x: fix mac_lock acquision before calling smsc911x_mac_read

When SMSC911X_SAVE_MAC_ADDRESS flag is enabled the driver calls
smsc911x_mac_read and smsc911x_mac_read function without acquiring mac_lock
spinlock

This patch fixes following warning

smsc911x: Driver version 2008-10-21.
