Hello Philipp,
Thank you for testing the patch set and the following feedback. Much appreciate.

Okay. I will switch it to v3 if there is opportunity for another revision of
this patch set.

Since this is my first patch set, I wanted to be small and manageable. I also
made changes only to function parameters and local variable. I am now
comfortable to make similar change for the other files and symbols such as
functions and structures. I will send in a separate patch set for the remaining
files of this driver.

For this file, I changed all networkAddr definitions except those that are part
of global structure definition. I will include those changes in the next patch
set.

Sure, in the next patch set.
