[PATCH 0/1]qlcnic: fix set mac addr

[Amit Kumar Salecha]

Hi
  Sending 1 important patch to fix bonding enviornment.
  Mac addresses are not correctly communicated/set to fw, hence fw drops
  packets as mac address doesn't match.

  This fix need to be included in net-2.6 branch.

[PATCH 1/1] qlcnic: fix set mac addr

[Amit Kumar Salecha]

If interface is down, mac address request are not sent to fw
but it is getting add in driver mac list.
Driver mac list should be in sync with fw i.e addresses communicated
to fw.
