[PATCH 43/50] macvlan: use dev_hw_addr_random() instead of random_ether_addr()

From: Danny Kukawka <hidden>
Date: 2012-02-08 21:21:39
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: networking drivers, the rest · Maintainers: Andrew Lunn, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

Use dev_hw_addr_random() instead of calling random_ether_addr()
to set addr_assign_type correctly to NET_ADDR_RANDOM.

Reset the state to NET_ADDR_PERM as soon as the MAC get
changed via .ndo_set_mac_address.
