If a MAC address was passed via the device tree node for the r8152 device, use it and fall back to reading from EEPROM otherwise. This is useful for devices where the r8152 EEPROM was not programmed with a valid MAC address, or if users want to explicitly set a MAC address in the bootloader and pass that to the kernel.

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.
