l2fib_make_key() casts and reads the input 6-Bytes mac_address as u64,
therefore if the mac_address is declared with 6 Bytes only, address-sanitizer
rightly triggers an invalid read on the last two Bytes.
However, l2fib_make_key() does a 16 bits shift to discard those 2 values,
therefore, this invalid read is of no consequence (and so can be silenced safely).
