macvlan: Fix some issues with changing mac addresses
There are some issues in macvlan wrt to changing it's mac address.
* An error is returned in the specified address is the same as an already
assigned address.
* In passthru mode, the mac address of the macvlan device doesn't change.
* After changing the mac address of a passthru macvlan and then removing it,
the mac address of the physical device remains changed.
This patch series attempts to resolve these issues.
V2: Address a small issue in p4 where we save the address from the lowerdev

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
