Subject: [PATCH net-next 2/8] vmxnet3: Preserve the MAC address configured by ifconfig
Date: Fri, 14 Jan 2011 16:59:31 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20110115005930.1064.82144.stgit@sbhatewara-dev1.eng.vmware.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20110115005701.1064.67435.stgit@sbhatewara-dev1.eng.vmware.com>
