    qede: Don't use an internal MAC field · 492a1d98
    Mintz, Yuval 提交于
    Driver maintains its primary MAC in a private field which
    gets updated when ndo_dev_set_mac() gets called.
    
    However, there are flows where the primary MAC of the device can change
    without said NDO being called [bond device in TLB mode configuring
    slaves' addresses], resulting in a configuration where there's a mismatch
    between what's apparent to user [the netdevice's value] and what's
    configured in the HW [the private value].
    
    As we don't have any real motivation of maintaining this
    private field, simply remove it and start using the netdevice's
    field instead.
