Subject: [PATCH 0/2] vdpasim: allow to set MAC address

This series starts by fixing a bug:
vdpa_sim generates a MAC address that is never show to
upper layer, and thus virtio-net generates another random
MAC address, that changes each time virtio-net is loaded
(even if vdpa_sim is not unloaded).

Then it adds a parameter to vpa_sim module to allow the user to
set the MAC address. With that we use vdpa_sim with a stable
MAC addres, that doesn't change between reboots.

Laurent Vivier (2):
  vdpasim: fix MAC address configuration
  vdpasim: allow to assign a MAC address
