commit 3c0f4f09c063e143822393d99cb2b19a85451c07 upstream.
The CDC-ECM specification [1] requires to send the host MAC address as
an uppercase hexadecimal string in chapter "5.4 Ethernet Networking
Functional Descriptor":
The Unicode character is chosen from the set of values 30h through
39h and 41h through 46h (0-9 and A-F).
However, snprintf(.., "%pm", ..) generates a lowercase MAC address
string. While most host drivers are tolerant to this, UsbNcm.sys on
Windows 10 is not. Instead it uses a different MAC address with all
bytes set to zero including and after the first byte containing a
lowercase letter. On Windows 11 Microsoft fixed it, but apparently they
did not backport the fix.
This change fixes the issue by upper-casing the MAC to comply with the
specification.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
