[ Upstream commit badccd49b93bb945bf4e5cc8707db67cdc5e27e5 ]
The MAC address of VF can be configured through the mailbox mechanism of ENETC, but the previous implementation forgot to set the MAC address in net_device, resulting in the SMAC of the sent frames still being the old MAC address. Since the MAC address in the hardware has been changed, Rx cannot receive frames with the DMAC address as the new MAC address. The most obvious phenomenon is that after changing the MAC address, we can see that the MAC address of eno0vf0 has not changed through the "ifconfig eno0vf0" command and the IP address cannot be obtained .
