MAC address setup

-----------------

mlx5 driver provides mechanism to setup the MAC address of the PCI VF/SF.



The configured MAC address of the PCI VF/SF will be used by netdevice and rdma

device created for the PCI VF/SF.



- Get the MAC address of the VF identified by its unique devlink port index::



    $ devlink port show pci/0000:06:00.0/2

    pci/0000:06:00.0/2: type eth netdev enp6s0pf0vf1 flavour pcivf pfnum 0 vfnum 1

        hw_addr 00:00:00:00:00:00



- Set the MAC address of the VF identified by its unique devlink port index::



    $ devlink port function set pci/0000:06:00.0/2 hw_addr 00:11:22:33:44:55

A user may set the hardware address of the function using

'devlink port function set hw_addr' command. For Ethernet port function

`devlink port function set hw_addr` command. For Ethernet port function

this means a MAC address.
