[Bug 1668209] [NEW] linux bridge trunk wiring shouldn't set tap mac address

 

Public bug reported:

Currently the linux bridge trunk plugin is setting the mac address on
the tap devices for the subports to the same macs as the port model.
When the VM sends traffic, this results in the warnings below which
seems to result in the forwarding behavior being unstable. We shouldn't
set the mac on this TAP device since it doesn't really serve a purpose.
