Unfortunately, with the current HW, RX descriptor only indicates if it 
is a loopback packet from a VF,
but not the specific id of the VF.
Multiple macs on VF are not supported with the current patchset.
At this point we are not making switchdev as the default mode because of 
these limitations.

We don't have TX/RX queues associated with VFPR netdevs, so we need to 
set the dev to PF netdev and requeue the skb.

Somehow that patch didn't make it to netdev. You can find it here on 
intel-wired-lan archives.

I will CC you when i submit V3.
