Dear Maintainers,
    Thanks for the review and suggestions for my patch.

v9 -> v10
--------
- Refactor ice_set_vf_mac() to use reuse the common code blocks
  for setting the MAC addresses in both netdev and devlink flow.

v8 -> v9
--------
- Rebasing against dev-queue branch of next-queue tree

v7 -> v8
--------
- Added const keyword for the parameter ``mac`` in ice_set_vf_fn_mac()

v6 -> v7
--------
- Addressed Smatch and checkpatch issues

v5 -> v6
--------
- Changed data type of vf_id to u16
- Used container_of(port, struct ice_vf, devlink_port) to
  get the vf instead of ice_get_vf_by_id()/ice_put_vf()

v4 -> v5
--------
- Cloned ice_set_vf_mac() to ice_set_vf_fn_mac() so that the
  parameter ice_pf is used instead of net_device of vf
- removed redundant error handling

v3 -> v4
--------
- Released the vf device by calling ice_put_vf()

v2 -> v3
--------
- Fill the extack message instead of dev_err()

v1 -> v2
--------
- called ice_set_vf_mac() directly from the devlink port function
  handlers.

RFC -> v1
---------
- Add the function handlers to set and get the HW address for the
  VF representor ports.
