net: usb: ax88179_178a: Implement ethtool_ops set_eeprom
The vendor driver does upon failing to read a valid MAC address from EEPROM write the netdev's address back to EEPROM and invoking a EEPROM reload operation. Based on this we can implement the ethtool_ops set_eeprom and provide the means to populate the EEPROM from within Linux. It's worth noting that ax88179_get_eeprom() will return some default data unless the content of the EEPROM is deemed "complete", so until the EEPROM is fully populated (e.g. by running ethtool -e | ethtool -E) data written with ax88179_set_eeprom() will appear not to stick. The implementation is based on asix_set_eeprom(), from asix_common.c Signed-off-by: Bjorn Andersson <bjorn.andersson@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
