Revision 209ad53bc19667a128d9c51beba873a5c62bff6e authored by Linus Torvalds on 30 October 2006, 01:31:49 UTC, committed by Linus Torvalds on 30 October 2006, 01:31:49 UTC
This reverts commit a2b98a697fa4e7564f78905b83db122824916cf9.

As per Guennadi Liakhovetski, the mac address change support code breaks
some normal uses (_without_ any address changes), and until it's all
sorted out, we're better off without it.

Says Francois:

  "Go revert it.

   Despite what I claimed, I can not find a third-party confirmation by
   email that it works elsewhere.

   It would probably be enough to remove the call to
   __rtl8169_set_mac_addr() in rtl8169_hw_start() though."
