Subject[PATCH] vdpa/mlx5: Use random MAC for the vdpa net instance
Date
We should not try to use the VF MAC address as that is used by the
regular (e.g. mlx5_core) NIC implementation. Instead, use a random
generated MAC address.

Suggested by: Cindy Lu <lulu@redhat.com>
Fixes: 1a86b377aa21 ("vdpa/mlx5: Add VDPA driver for supported mlx5 devices")
Signed-off-by: Eli Cohen <elic@nvidia.com>
