I would name it IFF_LIVE_NAME_CHANGE to match IFF_LIVE_ADDR_CHANGE
there is no reason its use should be restricted to SLAVE devices.

[PATCH v5 0/3] make mac programming for virtio net more robust
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

Stephen,
May be you should consider moving netvsc to use the net_failover driver now?

[RFC V7 PATCH 0/7] enable tx interrupts for virtio-net
Hi:
This is a new version of trying to enable tx interrupts for
virtio-net.
We used to try to avoid tx interrupts and orphan packets before
transmission for virtio-net. This breaks socket accounting and can
lead serveral other side effects e.g:
- Several other functions which depends on socket accounting can not
work correctly (e.g TCP Small Queue)
- No tx completion which make BQL or packet

[PATCH 00/10] Split UFO into v4 and v6 versions.
UFO support in the kernel applies to both IPv4 and IPv6 protocols
with the same device feature. However some devices may not be able
to support one of the offloads. For this we split the UFO offload
feature into 2 pieces. NETIF_F_UFO now controlls the IPv4 part and
this series introduces NETIF_F_UFO6.
As a result of this work, we can now re-enable NETIF_F_UFO on
virtio_net devices and restore
