The addr_assign_type should be updated accordingly, either by reusing the value from the source device or explicitly indicating that the address is stolen by setting addr_assign_type to NET_ADDR_STOLEN. This patch set adds a helper copying both the dev_addr and the addr_assign_type, and use this helper in drivers which don't currently set the addr_assign_type. Using NET_ADDR_STOLEN might be more appropriate in some of these cases. Please let me know, and I'll update the patch accordingly.
