Subject: 6lowpan: revert 'reuse eth_mac_addr()'
X-Git-Tag: v3.6-rc1~125^2~290
X-Git-Url: https://openfabrics.org/gitweb/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=42c3629551ab8b1613d27c8d046537f9f5b17cbb;p=~emulex%2Finfiniband.git

6lowpan: revert 'reuse eth_mac_addr()'

This reverts the commit cdf49c283e2e105da86ca575ad35b453f5ff24ea which
replaces lowpan '.ndo_set_mac_address' method by ethernet's one.

Accorind to the IEEE 802.15.4 standard, device has 8-byte length address,
so this hook loses the last 2 bytes which may rise a compatibility problems
with other IEEE 802.15.4 standard implementations.
