Re: [Intel-wired-lan] [next] igb: allow setting MAC address on i211 using a device tree blob

It seem to me this should be using eth_platform_get_mac_address(), a
slightly more generic method to do this.  See the i40e driver for an
example, commit d9a84324e6 I believe.

Humm, NULL, NULL. That means find the first node anywhere in the
device tree which matches. This is not going to work too well when you
have multiple i211s.

There is a way so specify a DT node is attached to a specific PCIe
bus/slot. I think you should search only there, so solving the
multiple device issue.
