[PATCH v3 20/27] net/iavf: avoid rte malloc in MAC address operations

[Anatoly Burakov]

Currently, when adding or deleting MAC addresses, we are using
rte_zmalloc followed by an immediate rte_free. This is not needed as this
memory is not being stored anywhere, so replace it with regular
malloc/free.
