    ibmveth: Fix endian issues with MAC addresses · d746ca95
    Anton Blanchard 提交于
    The code to load a MAC address into a u64 for passing to the
    hypervisor via a register is broken on little endian.
    
    Create a helper function called ibmveth_encode_mac_addr
    which does the right thing in both big and little endian.
    
    We were storing the MAC address in a long in struct ibmveth_adapter.
    It's never used so remove it - we don't need another place in the
    driver where we create endian issues with MAC addresses.
