I'm still not 100% sure that it is the way we need to go since
this configuration will not survive OVS restarts, i.e. it's difficult
to use/maintain in something like OpenStack environment.
(Also, DPDK currently doesn't have any protection from MAC changing
on VFs from the inside of VM.)
But anyway. Comments inline.
Best regards, Ilya Maximets.

netdev needs to be closed.

Why this is not treated as error? i.e. _reply_error().

response leaked.

This command needs to be documented in man pages and NEWS.
