Tonghao Zhang 6e77c413e8 net/mlx5: Avoid panic when setting vport mac, getting vport config
If we try to set VFs mac address on a VF (not PF) net device,
the kernel will be crash. The commands are show as below:

$ echo 2 > /sys/class/net/$MLX_PF0/device/sriov_numvfs
$ ip link set $MLX_VF0 vf 0 mac 00:11:22:33:44:00

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
