Commit 406f42fa0d3c ("net-next: When a bond have a massive amount
of VLANs...") introduced a rbtree for faster Ethernet address look

the writes to it go through appropriate helpers.
I think the title should be "net: virtio: use eth_hw_addr_set()"

Do we need to change virtnet_set_mac_address() as well?
