When it might happen? I will double check my test to see whether macvlan
was multiple queue or not. Then submitting my experimental patch for
review.

When it might be support in future. For performance reason, we are
interested in macvlan + VF for multiples VMs.
One more question here: Does VF support promiscuous mode? I don't see
the flag in ixgbevf driver.
Thanks
