Your mailer wraps the lines. Could you try and fix that?

You could move the is_valid_ether_addr() check here so we do not do this
in each caller.

Can we have the factor out of common code into eth_of_fixup_node() as a
separate patch please? That makes the change that comes in this patch
more obvious and easier to follow.
