I guess one could set the length, but not have mac addresses in the DT. Otherwise you could just infer the length from the property length. Anyways, a conversation for another time I guess. Rob

The ethernet-controller schema specifies "mac-address" and "local-mac-address" but other network devices such as wireless network adapters use mac addresses as well. The Devicetree Specification, Release v0.3 specifies in section 4.3.1 a generic "Network Class Binding" with "address-bits", "mac-address", "local-mac-address" and "max-frame-size". This schema specifies the "address-bits" property and moves "local-mac-address" and "mac-address" over from ethernet-controller.yaml. The schema currently does not restrict MAC address size based on address-bits.
