Hi Dave,
This fixes it (I wonder if this bug is lurking in any other drivers):
From: Stephen Rothwell <sfr@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Date: Tue, 12 May 2009 17:24:02 +1000
Subject: [PATCH] net/ibmveth: fix panic in probe
netdev->dev_addr changed from being an array to being a pointer, so we
should not take its address for memcpy().
