There is no need to write the MAC address before every Get Next
operation, since ATU MAC registers are not cleared between calls.

Move the _mv88e6xxx_atu_mac_write call outside of _mv88e6xxx_atu_getnext
so future code could call ATU Get Next multiple times and save a few
register access.

Missing SoB tag here.

Damn, good catch. Can I add it in reply to the patch, or should I send a
v3?

Thanks,

I am fairly positive patchwork should be able to pick it up, so replying
to your patch might just do it fine.
