Title:
  mac_address port attribute is read-only

Status in OpenStack Neutron (virtual network service):
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Ironic uses Neutron for IPAM - IP address allocation and DHCP, same as
  nova with e.g. KVM or Xen. Unlike a virtual machine hypervisor,
  Ironics real machines sometimes develop hardware faults, and parts
  need to be replaced - and when that happens the port MAC changes.
  Having the port's mac address be read-only makes this much more
  intrusive than it would otherwise be - we have to tear down and
  rebuild the whole machine, rather than just replace the card and tell
  Neutron the new MAC.
