From: Anant Thazhemadam <anant.thazhemadam@xxxxxxxxx> commit f45a4248ea4cc13ed50618ff066849f9587226b2 upstream. When get_registers() fails in set_ethernet_addr(),the uninitialized value of node_id gets copied over as the address. So, check the return value of get_registers(). If get_registers() executed successfully (i.e., it returns sizeof(node_id)), copy over the MAC address using ether_addr_copy() (instead of using memcpy()). Else, if get_registers() failed instead, a randomly generated MAC address is set as the MAC address instead.
