net: ethernet: bgmac: mac address change bug
ndo_set_mac_address() passes struct sockaddr * as 2nd parameter to bgmac_set_mac_address() but code assumed u8 *. This caused two bytes chopping and the wrong mac address was configured. Signed-off-by: Hari Vyas <hariv@broadcom.com> Signed-off-by: Jon Mason <jon.mason@broadcom.com> Fixes: 4e209001b86 ("bgmac: write mac address to hardware in ndo_set_mac_address") Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
