Hi Jason,
patch is related to a network driver, so Ben should be informed, too.
- /*
* The MX27 can store the mac address in internal eeprom
* This mechanism is also supported now by MX51 or MX25
*/
If all supported processors implement the same way, we do not need to distinguish. The comment does not add any further info.
struct iim_regs *iim = (struct iim_regs *)IMX_IIM_BASE; int i;
for (i = 0; i < 6; i++)
mac[6-1-i] = readl(&iim->iim_bank_area0[IIM0_MAC + i]);
mac[6-1-i] = readl(&iim->iim_bank_area[IIM_MAC + i]);
return !is_valid_ether_addr(mac);

Not sure. Why is this call removed ? We have changed the storage for the MAC address, but we need always to set the FEC controller. What is the reason to drop it ?
