ethernet: Copy only 6 bytes of mac address into a u64
Rather than leaving 2 bytes of junk in the upper word of a mac address represented as a u64, zero them out. That way later compairsons stand a chance of matching when deleting a bridge's arp termination entries. The volatile qualifier shouldn't be needed here, but without it the compiler removes the clib_memcpy() at -O2. Bad compiler. No biscuit. Type: fix commit: faf22cb303b65e2a6bf8dad959d7f5ee6d031c4f Change-Id: Iebcf35fdd421293dccbcaefadef767f7e139438e Signed-off-by: Jon Loeliger <jdl@netgate.com>
