Roopa Prabhu ce43483caf qemu: install port profile and mac address on netdev hostdevs
These changes are applied only if the hostdev has a parent net device
(i.e. if it was defined as "<interface type='hostdev'>" rather than
just "<hostdev>").  If the parent netdevice has virtual port
information, the original virtualport associate functions are called
(these set and restore both mac and port profile on an
interface). Otherwise, only mac address is set on the device.

Note that This is only supported for SR-IOV Virtual Functions (not for
standard PCI or USB netdevs), and virtualport association is only
supported for 802.1Qbh. For all other types of cards and types of
virtualport, a "Config Unsupported" error is returned and the
operation fails.

         LibVirt : simple API for virtualization

  Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities
of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software
available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of
the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of
Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic
resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing
long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but
should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.
