From aa076e3d220a7d2e71ef0f5213bdbbcc7e351b86 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mike Looijmans Date: Thu, 29 Mar 2018 07:29:49 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] net: macb: Try to retrieve MAC addess from nvmem provider Call of_get_nvmem_mac_address() to fetch the MAC address from an nvmem cell, if one is provided in the device tree. This allows the address to be stored in an I2C EEPROM device for example. Signed-off-by: Mike Looijmans Acked-by: Nicolas Ferre Signed-off-by: David S.
