Clang warns:
drivers/net/ethernet/microchip/sparx5/sparx5_main.c:760:29: warning: variable 'mac_addr' is uninitialized when used here [-Wuninitialized] if (of_get_mac_address(np, mac_addr)) { ^~~~~~~~ drivers/net/ethernet/microchip/sparx5/sparx5_main.c:669:14: note: initialize the variable 'mac_addr' to silence this warning u8 *mac_addr; ^ = NULL 1 warning generated.
mac_addr is only used to store the value retrieved from of_get_mac_address(), which is then copied into the base_mac member of the sparx5 struct using ether_addr_copy(). It is easier to just use the base_mac address directly, which avoids the warning and the extra copy.
