+Subject: [PATCH v4 3/8] mac80211: ath9k: show platform MAC address in kernel
+ log if set
+
+Add information in kernel log during module startup if MAC address
+of WLAN device is overridden by platform-supplied one. This one allows
+user to see final MAC address for device, especially when invalid/random
+address is assigned first and then overwritten by platform data.
