[PATCH] ppc32: MBX MAC address fix
From Tom Rini <trini@kernel.crashing.org> On the MBX the kernel made an assumption about where the MAC address would be in the VPD (Vital Product Data). However, the documentation for the firmware (EPPC-Bug) describes the format of the VPD and makes no guarrantees about the location of any VPD record. It does however describe the format of each record type and the MAC address record will be of type '08' and of size 6. This changes the code so that instead of assuming a position, it searches for the record, which I assume is also what EPPC-Bug does.
