Currenly mac is programmed byte by byte. This means that we
have an intermediate step where mac is wrong.
Third patch introduced a new vq control command to set mac
address, it's atomic.
V2: check return of sending command, delay eth_mac_addr()
V3: restore software address when fail to set hardware address
V4: split eth_mac_addr, fix error handle
V5: rebase patches to net-next tree
Amos Kong (2):
move virtnet_send_command() above virtnet_set_mac_address()
virtio-net: introduce a new control to set macaddr
Stefan Hajnoczi (1):
net: split eth_mac_addr for better error handling
