 drivers/of/of_net.c:104: warning: Function parameter or member 'np' not described in 'of_get_mac_address'
 drivers/of/of_net.c:104: warning: expecting prototype for mac(). Prototype was for of_get_mac_address() instead

Hi Lee

of_get_mac_address() is a pretty important API function. So it would
be better to add the missing header to make this valid kdoc.

/**
 * of_get_mac_address - Get MAC address from device tree
 * @np: Pointer to the device_node of the interface
 *

Pretty important, yes.  Referenced/documented, no. :)
