NAME
       sis96x_get_mac_addr - Get MAC address for SiS962 or SiS963 model


SYNOPSIS
       int __devinit sis96x_get_mac_addr  (struct pci_dev * pci_dev,
                                             struct net_device * net_dev);


ARGUMENTS
       pci_dev
              the sis900 pci device

       net_dev
              the net device to get address for


DESCRIPTION
       SiS962 or SiS963 model, use EEPROM to store MAC address. And EEPROM  is
       shared  by  LAN  and  1394.  When  access  EEPROM, send EEREQ signal to
       hardware first and wait for EEGNT. If EEGNT is ON, EEPROM is  permitted
       to  be  access by LAN, otherwise is not. After MAC address is read from
       EEPROM, send EEDONE signal to refuse EEPROM access by LAN.  The  EEPROM
       map  of SiS962 or SiS963 is different to SiS900. The signature field in
       SiS962 or  SiS963  spec  is  meaningless.  MAC  address  is  read  into
       net_dev->dev_addr.
