Hi Helin,

It should be always true as it is a function (not known by the preprocessor).

So it is always replacing ether_addr_equal() by a kcompat equivalent for old kernels,
even if ether_addr_equal() is already defined as a C function.
Just to confirm: is it really what we want?

An indentation is missing here.

Why an empty comment?

Thanks
