   4 Subject: [PATCH] net: bgmac-platform: handle mac-address deferral
   5
   6 This patch is a replication of Christian Lamparter's "net: bgmac-bcma:
   7 handle deferred probe error due to mac-address" patch for the
   8 bgmac-platform driver [1].
   9
  10 As is the case with the bgmac-bcma driver, this change is to cover the
  11 scenario where the MAC address cannot yet be discovered due to reliance
  12 on an nvmem provider which is yet to be instantiated, resulting in a
  13 random address being assigned that has to be manually overridden.
