net/mlx5e: Initialize CEE's getpermhwaddr address buffer to 0xff
[ Upstream commit d968f0f2 ] Latest change in open-lldp code uses bytes 6-11 of perm_addr buffer as the Ethernet source address for the host TLV packet. Since our driver does not fill these bytes, they stay at zero and the open-lldp code ends up sending the TLV packet with zero source address and the switch drops this packet. The fix is to initialize these bytes to 0xff. The open-lldp code considers 0xff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff as the invalid address and falls back to use the host's mac address as the Ethernet source address.
