Petr Štetiar da48be3373 staging: octeon-ethernet: Fix of_get_mac_address ERR_PTR check
Commit 284eb16068 ("staging: octeon-ethernet: support
of_get_mac_address new ERR_PTR error") has introduced checking for
ERR_PTR encoded error value from of_get_mac_address with IS_ERR macro,
which is not sufficient in this case, as the mac variable is set to NULL
initialy and if the kernel is compiled without DT support this NULL
would get passed to IS_ERR, which would lead to the wrong decision and
would pass that NULL pointer and invalid MAC address further.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
