[PATCH v2 1/1] r8152: sync sa_family with the media type of network device

[crag0715]

From: "Crag.Wang" <crag.wang@dell.com>

Without this patch the socket address family sporadically gets wrong
value ends up the dev_set_mac_address() fails to set the desired MAC
address.

Code looks reasonable.  This must have been caused by:

Fixes: 25766271e42f ("r8152: Refresh MAC address during USBDEVFS_RESET")

which is still in net-next.  In the future please make sure you read:

https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/networking/netdev-FAQ.html

In particular:

To assure smooth flow of your patches into the tree :)

Yes, patch is intended to fix 25766271e42f which is still in net-next.

It appears that prefix is desired in the subject. Thanks for sharing the info.

Ah yes, this is because of an uninitialized struct sockaddr, so random garbage.
I didn't catch it during my testing, good catch.

Networking driver patches not sent to netdev@vger.kernel.org are very unlikely
to be integrated.

Thank you.

Adding netdev@vger.kernel.org to this email, sorry about missing the
recipient in the first place.

Thanks,

This does not get the patch queued up in patchwork, nor allow other readers of
netdev to see the patch so that it can be properly reviewed.

You must make a new, fresh, posting of your patch.
