Subject: bnx2x: Zero VFs starting MACs
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=e09b74d0195496fdc2dbe106eaa55da48873876e;p=GitHub%2Fexynos8895%2Fandroid_kernel_samsung_universal8895.git

bnx2x: Zero VFs starting MACs

Hypervisor/Supervisor should set the VF's MAC prior to its load;
Using a randomly generated MAC as a default is a bad practice.
