[PATCH 2/5] net: add an info message to eth_platform_get_mac_address()

From: Bartosz Golaszewski
Date: Wed Jul 18 2018 - 12:12:37 EST


From: Bartosz Golaszewski <bgolaszewski@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

Many drivers that read the MAC address from EEPROM or MTD emit a log
message when they succeed. Since this function is meant to be reused
in those drivers instead of reimplementing the same operation
everywhere, add an info message when we successfully read the MAC
address.
