[V9] ethdev: fix one address occupies two entries in MAC addrs
Checks
Commit Message
The dev->data->mac_addrs[0] will be changed to a new MAC address when
applications modify the default MAC address by .mac_addr_set(). However,
if the new default one has been added as a non-default MAC address by
.mac_addr_add(), the .mac_addr_set() didn't check this address.
As a result, this MAC address occupies two entries in the list. Like:
add(MAC1)
add(MAC2)
add(MAC3)
add(MAC4)
set_default(MAC3)
default=MAC3, the rest of the list=MAC1, MAC2, MAC3, MAC4
Note: MAC3 occupies two entries.
But .mac_addr_set() cannot remove it implicitly in case of MAC address
shrinking in the list.
So this patch adds a check on whether the new default address was already
in the list and if so requires the user to remove it first.
In addition, this patch documents the position of the default MAC address
and address unique in the list.

v9: request user to remove the address instead of doing it implicitly in
.mac_addr_set() API.
v8: fix some comments.
v7: add announcement in the release notes and document this behavior.
v6: fix commit log and some code comments.
v5:
- merge the second patch into the first patch.
- add error log when rollback failed.
v4:
- fix broken in the patchwork
v3:
- first explicitly remove the non-default MAC, then set default one.
- document default and non-default MAC address
v2:
- fixed commit log.

Can you please document last sentences under '@return' as (-EEXIST)
error type?
