I've forward ported what I had.

Option 1:
        DECLARE_MAC_BUF(var);
        printk(MAC_FMT, MAC_ARG(var, dev->dev_addr));

perhaps it looks nicer to remove the MAC_FMT and defines.

Option 2:
        DECLARE_MAC_BUF(mac);
        printk("%s", print_mac(mac, dev->dev_addr));

Option 3:
        char mac[PRINT_MAC_SIZE];
        printk("%s", print_mac(mac, dev->dev_addr));

Option 4:
        char mac[18];
        printk("%s", print_mac(mac, dev->dev_addr));
