It is possible to set MAC address for DPDK ports by calling

use this functionality avoiding real MAC address configuration.
With this change following command will result in real MAC address
update on HW NIC:
ovs-vsctl set Interface <dpdk interface> mac="xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx"

I'm not sure why this treats -ENOTSUP as success.
You're right. This is a mistake. I had a thought that it'll be
inconvenient to report an error in this case, because some DPDK
virtual devices doesn't implement this functionality, but I
forgot that there will be no attempts to configure MAC if user
didn't set it explicitly.
I'll send v2.
Best regards, Ilya Maximets.
