Subject: net/tap: do not set remote MAC if not necessary
X-Git-Tag: spdx-start~3168
X-Git-Url: http://git.droids-corp.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=460bf26fd8904f985698d0c7d01c74b4053359c9;p=dpdk.git

net/tap: do not set remote MAC if not necessary

Check for the current MAC address on both the remote and the tap
netdevices before setting a new value.

While there, remove wrong empty lines and ensure tap_ioctl() return
value is negative, just like what is done throughout this code.

Fixes: 2bc06869cd94 ("net/tap: add remote netdevice traffic capture")
