I don't understand why the flags code in this patch translates
NETDEV_* to and from another format. The Linux version does it
because the kernel uses a different format, but this code is just a
dummy so there's no need to do that.
I don't understand why this code only allows
netdev_windows_set_etheraddr() to set an Ethernet address if one is
already cached.
Thanks,
Ben.
