The logic that deals with errors from qeth_l3_get_unique_id() is quite complex: it sets card->unique_id to 0xfffe, additionally flags it as UNIQUE_ID_NOT_BY_CARD and later takes this flag as cue to not propagate card->unique_id to dev->dev_id. With dev->dev_id thus holding 0, addrconf_ifid_eui48() applies its default behaviour. Get rid of all the special bit masks, and just return the old uid in case of an error. For the vast majority of cases this will be 0 (and so we still get the desired default behaviour) - with the rare exception where qeth_l3_get_unique_id() might have been called earlier but the initialization then failed at a later point.

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.
