Seems OK to me, though I suggest using ETH_ALEN
instead of 6.
Maybe using both patches would be better still.
And as long as I'm futzing with ssb, there's another
logging cleanup to go with it.
Here's a V2 with the missing SPOFF fixed.
Subject: [PATCH 1/2] ssb: pci: Standardize a function to get mac address
From: Joe Perches <joe@xxxxxxxxxxx>
Don't require alignment of mac addresses to u16.
