From: Li RongQing <redacted> The size of all_zeros_mac is 6 byte, but eth_hash() will access the 8 byte, and KASan reported the below bug:Sounds like we should fix eth_hash() (macvlan has a same function), it should not read beyond 6 bytes.
Why ? We always have at least 2 bytes following ethernet address in a packet. Better add these 2 bytes in all_zeros_mac[] and not slow down the hash function. We use same tricks in eth_type_trans()
