From 00aaea2f95d73d4e2b5e45cf77c3cbb16c59e87f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jan-Bernd Themann Date: Mon, 9 Jun 2008 15:17:37 +0100 Subject: ehea: set mac address fix eHEA has to call firmware functions in order to change the mac address of a logical port. This patch checks if the logical port is up when calling the register / deregister mac address calls. If the port is down these firmware calls would fail and are therefore not executed.
