+Subject: [PATCH] enetc: Enable live mac addr change for PF
+
+Use device flag IFF_LIVE_ADDR_CHANGE to signal that
+the device supports changing the primary mac address
+for a ENETC port, when the PF eth interface is running.
+This capability is required by certain applications,
+like bonding mode 6 (Adaptive Load Balancing).
