You are correct. The original PAO code that I saw didn't have the MAC address checks as a sanity check, which is why I suggested removing it. If the card does indeed work with the ed driver in PAO, then I think we should just remove the MAC checks in -current because this list is > 3 and we generally don't check elsewhere in the kernel for sane addresses (the fe driver does, I know, but only for a limited number of cards).
