You should synchronize with Rob Herring who is also trying to add this eth_setenv_enetaddr_by_index() function. http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/152590/
Hi Rob,
Joe mentioned you have the same patch as me here: http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/158624/
What is the current status of your patch?
Wolfgang had some comments on my patch: http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/158354/
Could you incorporate these changes into your patch?
Unfortunately, i don't see a way to add the helper function without meeting Wolfgangs requirement not to increase the binary file for other boards. Unless gc-sections and function-sections are used on ARM, or adding an CONFIG_XX macro to mask the helper on compile time.
