The Ethernet IPoIB driver enslaves IPoIB devices and uses them as
VIFs (Virtual Interface) which serve an Ethernet NIC e.g present in a
guest OS. For each such slave that acts as a VIF, eIPoIB needs to know
the mac and optionally the vlan uses by that NIC, the new ndo opertaion
is used to associate the mac/vlan for that slave.
