> This patch makes changed vm mac address visible on host via ip link show
> command. This problem is fixed by copying last unicast mac filter to vf-
> >default_lan_addr.addr. Without this patch if vf mac was not set from host
> side and if you run ip link show $pf, on host side you'd always see a zero mac,
> not the real vf mac that vf assigned to itself.
