[PATCH 09/10] net: rtl8139: Read HW address from EEPROM only on probe

2020-05-09 Thread Marek Vasut
Do not re-read the HW address from the EEPROM on every start of transfer, otherwise the user will not be able to adjust ethaddr as needed. Read the address only once, when the card is detected. Signed-off-by: Marek Vasut Cc: Joe Hershberger --- drivers/net/rtl8139.c | 27 ++-
