[PATCH] net: xilinx: emaclite: Fallback to random MAC address.

From: Daniel Romell <hidden>
Date: 2016-08-19 12:13:19
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: networking drivers, the rest · Maintainers: Andrew Lunn, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

If the address configured in the device tree is invalid, the
driver will fallback to using a random address from the locally
administered range.
