It's just a duplicate implementation of "%*phC".  Thanks to Joe
Perches for showing that we had exactly this support in the
lib/vsprintf.c code already.

<id>e5c5d22e8dcf7c2d430336cbf8e180bd38e8daf1</id>
<content type='text'>
Add a new constant ETH_P_802_3_MIN, the minimum ethernet type for
an 802.3 frame. Frames with a lower value in the ethernet type field
are Ethernet II.

Also update all the users of this value that David Miller and
I could find to use the new constant.

Also correct a bug in util.c. The comparison with ETH_P_802_3_MIN
should be &gt;= not &gt;.

As suggested by Jesse Gross.

Compile tested only.

<content type='text'>
When we set mac address, software mac address in system and hardware mac
address all need to be updated. Current eth_mac_addr() doesn't allow
callers to implement error handling nicely.

This patch split eth_mac_addr() to prepare part and real commit part,
then we can prepare first, and try to change hardware address, then do
the real commit if hardware address is set successfully.
