This patch introduces a new list in struct net_device and brings a set of functions to handle the work with device address list. The list is a replacement for the original dev_addr field and because in some situations there is need to carry several device addresses with the net device. To be backward compatible, dev_addr is made to point to the first member of the list so original drivers sees no difference. Signed-off-by: Jiri Pirko <redacted>
Applied to net-next-2.6, thanks!
