[PATCH] net/ucc_geth: allow to set mac address on running device

From: Kevin Hao
Date: Tue May 26 2009 - 21:49:27 EST


Inspired by the patch for 8139too (bda6a15a).

Currently we can't set mac address on a running ucc_geth device.
But this is needed when you use this device as a bonding slave in
bonding device in balance-alb mode. So add this feature for ucc_geth
device.
