So it should be this?

         if (((mac[0] == 0xff) && (mac[1] == 0xff) && (mac[2] == 0xff) &&
              (mac[3] == 0xff) && (mac[4] == 0xff) && (mac[5] == 0xff)) ||
             ((mac[0] == 0x00) && (mac[1] == 0x00) && (mac[2] == 0x00) &&
              (mac[3] == 0x00) && (mac[4] == 0x00) && (mac[5] == 0x00)) &&
             (is_broadcast_ether_addr(mac) || is_zero_ether_addr(mac))) {
                 addr = of_get_property(np, "local-mac-address", &len);
                 if (addr && len == ETH_ALEN) {
                         memcpy(mac_addr, addr, ETH_ALEN);
                 } else {
                         mac[0] = 0x00;
                         ...
		}
	}

If yes, I'm not sure how to proceed as these are the very first patches I send.
Should I send a v2 patch with both changes or just a v2 with "np" removed and
another one for adding 'is_broadcast_ether_addr' and 'is_zero_ether_addr' checks?

Michael
