Title:
  macvlan doesn't work on the kernel 3.13.0-37-generic

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I updated the kernel from linux-image-3.2.0-69-generic to linux-
  image-3.13.0-37-generic on Precise and the macvlan interface didn't
  work anymore.  I changed the kernel to linux-image-3.11.0-15-generic
  and it begins work again.

  Also I installed a new Trusty on other server and it doesn't work
  neither.

  I set this interface on the servers because these servers are LXC
  hosts and I want to connect the host servers with the lxc guest
  servers (they are configured with macvlans interfaces).

  I have these settings on the /etc/network/interfaces:

  # The primary network interface
  auto eth0
  iface eth0 inet manual
  	up ifconfig eth0 up
  	down ifconfig eth0 down

  auto macvlan0
  iface macvlan0 inet static
  	pre-up ip link add link eth0 name macvlan0 address 06:00:a:3:3:3 type macvlan mode bridge
  	post-down ip link delete macvlan0
  	address 10.0.3.3
          netmask 255.255.255.0
          network 10.0.3.0
          broadcast 10.0.3.255
          gateway 10.0.3.1
  	dns-nameservers 10.0.3.1

  I tried to debug the issue by using dmesg and checking the logs, but I
  didn't find any clue what is happening. I tried to find a bug about
  this issue, but I didn't have luck with that.
