When a lower device of the passthru macvlan changes it's address,
passthru macvlan is supposed to change it's own address as well.
However, that doesn't happen correctly because the check in
macvlan_addr_busy() will catch the fact that the lower level
(port) mac address is the same as the address we are trying to
assign to the macvlan, and return an error. As a reasult,
the address of the passthru macvlan device is never changed.
The same thing happens when the user attempts to change the
mac address of the passthru macvlan.
The simple solution appers to be to not check against
the lower device in case of passthru macvlan device, since
the 2 addresses are _supposed_ to be the same.
