From: Michael Ellerman <mpe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit ea938248557a52e231a31f338eac4baee36a8626 ] Since commit adeef3e32146 ("net: constify netdev->dev_addr") the bmac driver no longer builds with the following errors (pmac32_defconfig): linux/drivers/net/ethernet/apple/bmac.c: In function ‘bmac_probe’: linux/drivers/net/ethernet/apple/bmac.c:1287:20: error: assignment of read-only location ‘*(dev->dev_addr + (sizetype)j)’ 1287 | dev->dev_addr[j] = rev ? bitrev8(addr[j]): addr[j]; | ^ Fix it by making the modifications to a local macaddr variable and then passing that to eth_hw_addr_set(). We don't use the existing addr variable because the bitrev8() would mutate it, but it is already used unreversed later in the function.
