Since this is a Realtek feature, I feel this shouldn't be moved into a platform
MAC address lookup. The code should only be run when the correct Realtek device
is plugged in.
Changes from v2:
* Only apply to RTL8153-AD w/ eFuse pass through mac address pass thru
bit set.
* Drop matching DMI
The RTL8153-AD supports a persistent system specific MAC address.
This means a device plugged into two different systems with host side
support will show different (but persistent) MAC addresses.
This information for the system's persistent MAC address is burned in when
the system HW is built and
12 matches
