Subject: linux-next: build warning after merge of the net-next tree

Hi all,

After merging the net-next tree, today's linux-next build (x86_64
allmodconfig) produced this warning:

drivers/net/ethernet/qlogic/qlcnic/qlcnic_io.c: In function 'qlcnic_send_filter':
drivers/net/ethernet/qlogic/qlcnic/qlcnic_io.c:349:3: warning: passing argument 2 of 'ether_addr_equal' from incompatible pointer type [enabled by default]
   if (ether_addr_equal(tmp_fil->faddr, &src_addr) &&
   ^
In file included from include/linux/if_vlan.h:16:0,
                 from drivers/net/ethernet/qlogic/qlcnic/qlcnic_io.c:9:
include/linux/etherdevice.h:244:20: note: expected 'const u8 *' but argument is of type 'u64 *'
 static inline bool ether_addr_equal(const u8 *addr1, const u8 *addr2)
                    ^

Introduced by commit 6878f79a8b71 ("net: qlcnic: slight optimization of
addr compare").
