Using the sky2 driver with bonding can result in oopses related to reinitializing the PHY when the MAC address is changed (which bonding is wont to do). This patch changes sky2_set_mac_address to take less drastic measures.
This is analagous to the skge patch here: http://lkml.org/lkml/2005/9/29/399 which fixed the issue here: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5271 Signed-off-by: John W.
