[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2 31/32] net/i40e: enhance in sanity check of MAC

When VF sends request to add a new MAC address, PF host
will check if it's a non-zero or unicast address, or it
will return with error. In fact, VF still can set multicast
address. This change remove to check if it's a unicast
address.
