From: Andreas Oetken <redacted> sup_multicast_addr is passed to ether_addr_equal for address comparison which casts the address inputs to u16 leading to an unaligned access. Aligning the sup_multicast_addr to u16 boundary fixes the issue. Signed-off-by: Andreas Oetken <redacted> --- net/hsr/hsr_main.h | 5 ++++- 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-)
