Fork of alistair23 Linux kernel for reMarkable from https://github.com/alistair23/linux
707e7e9660
The current code already forwards the VF MAC address to the PF, except in one case. If the VF driver gets a valid MAC address from the firmware during probe time, it will not forward the MAC address to the PF, incorrectly assuming that the PF already knows the MAC address. This causes "ip link show" to show zero VF MAC addresses for this case. This assumption is not correct. Newer firmware remembers the VF MAC address last used by the VF and provides it to the VF driver during probe. So we need to always forward the VF MAC address to the PF. The forwarded MAC address may now be the PF assigned MAC address and so we need to make sure we approve it for this case.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
