So here comes a question, which MAC address has higher priority ?
the MAC address in hardware or the MAC address from the cmdline?
If both of these two MAC addresses exist, which should we use?
I have checked the spec, not sure if the bit VIRTIO_NET_F_MAC is the right one?
if yes, I will post a patch in qemu and add check for this bit before
we set the mac to hardware
