[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

[PATCH] virtio-net: Fix DMA-from-the-stack in virtnet_set_mac_address()
With CONFIG_VMAP_STACK=y, virtnet_set_mac_address() can be passed a
pointer to the stack and it will OOPS. Copy the address to the heap
to prevent the crash.

[PATCH net-next 1/3] virtio_net: set multicast filter list to host
The virtio_net driver never sends the multicast address list to
the host. This is because send command takes a pointer to scatter list
to send but only inserts that one entry into the outgoing scatter list.
This bug has been there since:

[QEMU PATCH v4 0/3] virtio-net: fix of ctrl commands
From: Amos Kong <akong at redhat.com>
Currently virtio-net code relys on the layout of descriptor,
this patchset removed the assumptions and introduced a control
command to set mac address. Last patch is a trivial renaming.
V2: check guest's iov_len
V3: fix of migration compatibility
make mac field in config space read-only when new feature is acked
V4: add fix of descriptor layout

[PATCH v2 0/2] Part 2: handle addr_assign_type for random addresses
The second part of my patch series to fix the handling of
addr_assign_type for random MAC addresses. This contains the
trival changes from random_ether_addr() to new
eth_hw_addr_random() and code to reset the state to
NET_ADDR_PERM as soon as the MAC get changed via
.ndo_set_mac_address where eth_mac_addr wasn't used.
