> be added for the local MAC address
> 
> Users expect that when adding a steering filter for the local MAC
> address, that all the traffic directed to that address will go to some
> queue.
> 
> Currently, it's not possible to configure entries in the "in use"
> state, which is the normal state of the local MAC address entry (it is
> the default), this patch allows to override the steering configuration
> of "in use" entries, if the filter to be added match the address and
> address type (source or destination) of an existing entry.
> 
> There is a bit of a special handling for entries referring to the
> local MAC address, when they are removed, only the steering
> configuration is reset.
