I missed this mail, sorry for my late reply. Patch itself looks correct, but let me confirm. Looking closely into linux/arch/*, I found that mips is the only architecture which supports the 'ethaddr' kernel parameter. Is this right? What I want to make sure is whether 'ethaddr' is an unusual kernel parameter or not. I think it's possible to probe MAC address(es) on kernel side, and it's common practice IMO. [ if not so, Linux couldn't work without suitable bootldrs which can pass the 'ethaddr' parameter. It's inconvenient, at least for me. ] However, I don't have strong opinions on this matter. If you still have troubles without this change, or can't probe MAC addresses by Kernel due to some reason, I'll apply the patch. Comments?
