Previous patch to address this problem loads the original MAC address from EEPROM. But it brought other problem for which it is necessary to introduce a new module parameter. However, it might suffice to restore the initial MAC address before shutdown/reboot/kexec and when removing the module. Signed-off-by: Ivan Vecera Signed-off-by: David S.
