[PATCH v2 3/3] net: add MTD support to eth_platform_get_mac_address()

From: Bartosz Golaszewski <hidden>
Date: 2018-07-19 08:20:40
Also in: linux-omap, lkml, netdev
Subsystem: networking [general], the rest · Maintainers: "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

From: Bartosz Golaszewski <redacted>

MTD doesn't support nvmem yet. Some platforms use MTD to read the MAC
address from SPI flash. If we want this function to generalize reading
the MAC address, we need to separately try to use MTD.
