[PATCH 2/2] ath5k: don't change mac in eeprom_read_mac on error

From: Jiri Slaby
Date: Sat Mar 07 2009 - 04:28:16 EST


Do not touch mac parameter passed to ath5k_eeprom_read_mac unless
we are sure we have correct address. I.e. when returning error, do
not change it.

While at it, use '= {}' compiler trick for memsetting mac_d.
