Subject: [PATCH 3/5] net: fortify eth_platform_get_mac_address()
Date: Wed, 18 Jul 2018 18:10:33 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180718161035.7005-4-brgl@bgdev.pl> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20180718161035.7005-1-brgl@bgdev.pl>

From: Bartosz Golaszewski <bgolaszewski@baylibre•com>

We'll soon have more sources from which to read the MAC address in this
routine. Make sure the address is correct before returning it.
