[ Upstream commit 8da80c9d50220a8e4190a4eaa0dd6aeefcbbb5bf ]
Make changes to MAC address dependent on the response of PF.
Disallow changes to HW MAC address and MAC filter from untrusted
VF, thanks to that ping is not lost if VF tries to change MAC.
Add a new field in iavf_mac_filter, to indicate whether there
was response from PF for given filter. Based on this field pass
or discard the filter.
If untrusted VF tried to change it's address, it's not changed.
Still filter was changed, because of that ping couldn't go through.
Fixes: c5c922b3e09b ("iavf: fix MAC address setting for VFs when filter is rejected")

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.
