> This patchset adds a support to override forced MAC (MAC set by PF for a VF)

> First patch adds a real change to use .ndo_set_vf_trust to override forced MAC

>
> Second patch takes care of a corner case, where MAC change from VF won't
> take effect when VF interface is down, by introducing a new TLV
