Subject: iavf: allow permanent MAC address to change
Patch-mainline: v5.4-rc1
Git-commit: 155f0ac2c96bc5dbfa26c14b397915443980e01d
References: jsc#SLE-7940
Allow the VF to override the "permanent" MAC address set by the host.
This allows bonding to work in the case where the administrator has set
the VF MAC.
Note that the VF must still be set to Trusted on the host if this change
is to be accepted by the PF driver.
