How about:
static int eth_validate_addr(const struct net_device *dev)
{
return is_valid_ether_addr(dev->dev_addr) ? 0 : -EINVAL;

hmmm -- its a slow path, so I don't see the value of marking the
argument 'const' -- right now this implementation merely reads the
dev->dev_addr[], but that need not always be the case.
And I don't see the value of squashing everything onto one line, IMO the
current version is more readable.
