Subject: [PATCH] r8152: Refresh MAC address during USBDEVFS_RESET
Date: Mon, 25 Mar 2019 09:12:23 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1553523143-23072-1-git-send-email-mario.limonciello@dell.com> (raw)
On some platforms it is possible to dynamically change the policy
of what MAC address is selected from the ASL at runtime.
These tools will reset the USB device and expect the change to be
made immediately.
