Since this is a network interface, you should be using netdev_err(),
netdev_dbg() etc.

checkpatch should of warned about pr_err().

Also, it seems odd you have got as far as open() without a MAC
address. You normally sort this out in probe().

Reverse christmas tree.

You are receiving frames without a valid Ethernet header?

And without a valid ether type?

Is this really looking at the first byte after the Ethernet header? If
it finds a 4 it must be IPv4 and a 6 means IPv6?

O.K. I have to ask. If this thing does not use an Ethernet header, why
are you writing an Ethernet driver? I assume you also don't use ARP?

It seems a driver more like slip, plip, hdlc, etc would be more
appropriate.

If you set netdev->min_mtu and max_mtu, the core will do this for you.

It appears you don't have an Ethernet header on the frames. So why do
you need a MAC address?

Why not use ndo_set_mac_address() and let the core handle this ioctl?
