Ah, very nice! I was wondering how to do this.

I suppose we need to do something in macvtap to handle this as
well, right? A guest trying to send a frame through qemu
or vhost net into macvtap needs to be prevented from sending
more when we get into this path. Right now, we just ignore
the return value of macvlan_start_xmit.
