Re: [PATCH net v2] net: bgmac-bcma: handle deferred probe error due to mac-address

Hello:

This patch was applied to netdev/net.git (refs/heads/master):

On Sun, 19 Sep 2021 13:57:25 +0200 you wrote:
Due to the inclusion of nvmem handling into the mac-address getter
function of_get_mac_address() by
commit d01f449c008a ("of_net: add NVMEM support to of_get_mac_address")
it is now possible to get a -EPROBE_DEFER return code. Which did cause
bgmac to assign a random ethernet address.

This exact issue happened on my Meraki MR32. The nvmem provider is
an EEPROM (at24c64) which gets instantiated once the module
driver is loaded... This happens once the filesystem becomes available.
