Hi Jakub,
Thanks for your review.
I will address all comments. I had already posted a v7 of this prior to
your comments addressing a silly build issue I failed to catch. I have
mark v7 as change requested in patchwork.
I do have one question.

Renesas net drivers print the MAC address in probe,
* RAVB
netdev_info(ndev, "Base address at %#x, %pM, IRQ %d.\n",
(u32)ndev->base_addr, ndev->dev_addr, ndev->irq);
* SH_ETH
netdev_info(ndev, "Base address at 0x%x, %pM, IRQ %d.\n",
(u32)ndev->base_addr, ndev->dev_addr, ndev->irq);
* RENESAS_ETHER_SWITCH
rswitch_for_each_enabled_port(priv, i)
netdev_info(priv->rdev[i]->ndev, "MAC address %pM\n",
priv->rdev[i]->ndev->dev_addr);
I have no strong opinion on if this is good or bad, but I do think they
all shall behave the same. What do you think is the best way forward,
keep this behavior in this new RTSN driver or remove the print from the
old drivers?
