Subject: base-files: wifi: add random MAC support for wifi-iface
X-Git-Url: http://git.lede-project.org./?a=commitdiff_plain;h=1ea563ae13637f55ec3a1a1056ba4f3595752a37;p=openwrt%2Fstaging%2Fthess.git

base-files: wifi: add random MAC support for wifi-iface

Add support for randomly generating a MAC address for a wifi-iface
instance by setting `macaddr` to `random`
When set to `random`, a new locally administered unicast MAC address
is generated and assigned to the iface everytime it is (re-)configured
