So I decided to add a helper for it. The helper takes care of wrapping which is probably not 100% necessary but seems like a good idea. And it saves driver side LoC (the diffstat is actually negative if we compare against the changes I'd have to make if I was to convert all these drivers to not operate directly on netdev->dev_addr). ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.
