That won't work for this board since that function only checks that the
MAC "is not 00:00:00:00:00:00, is not a multicast address, and is not
FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF." The MAC address that we get on all of our boards is
00:17:b6:00:00:00.

Which is a valid MAC address. So i don't see why the kernel should
reject it and use a random one.

Maybe you should talk to Marvell about how you can program the
e-fuses. You can then use MAC addresses from A8-97-DC etc.

Hi Brian,

I do completely agree with Andrew. Thats not a fix to be made in linux kernel.

The boards you get have zero efuse. You should work with Qualcomm on how to update mac addresses of your boards.
