[Bug 1657035] [NEW] libvirt overwrites externally set vlan tags in macvtap passthrough mode with VFs

 

Public bug reported:

Starting from version 1.3.5, Libvirt allows to set a vlan tag for macvtap 
passthrough mode on SR-IOV VFs. Libvirt also removes any vlan tags that 
has been set externally, by the ip link command.
Due to this, it's not possible to set a vlan for VFs with macvtap.
