[PATCH V2 net 4/7] net: hns3: Fixes the initialization of MAC address in hardware

From: Salil Mehta
Date: Tue Sep 19 2017 - 12:18:25 EST


From: Lipeng <lipeng321@xxxxxxxxxx>

This patch fixes the initialization of MAC address, fetched from HNS3
firmware i.e. when it is not randomly generated, to the HNS3 hardware.

Fixes: ca60906d2795 ("net: hns3: Add support of HNS3 Ethernet Driver for
hip08 SoC")
