Is there a way to pass a custom MAC address to the ath6kl upstream driver?

Not right now. It has been a common feature request so I'm hoping
someone will implement it soon.

In the ISC version of the driver, a softmac.c file is provided that
reads a MAC from a file if a module parameter softmac_enable=1 is
passed. Is there any reason why this has not made it upstream?

Providing mac address through a file is too ugly for upstream. We need
to implement it properly using the proper interface.

I totally agree. What would be the proper interface for that?
