The dev->data->mac_addrs[0] will be changed to a new MAC address when
applications modify the default MAC address by .mac_addr_set(). However,
if the new default one has been added as a non-default MAC address by
.mac_addr_add(), the .mac_addr_set() doesn't remove it from the mac_addrs
list. As a result, one MAC address occupies two entries in the list. Like:
add(MAC1)
add(MAC2)
add(MAC3)
add(MAC4)
set_default(MAC3)
default=MAC3, the rest of list=MAC1, MAC2, MAC3, MAC4
Note: MAC3 occupies two entries.
In addition, some PMDs, such as i40e, ice, hns3 and so on, do remove the
old default MAC when set default MAC. If user continues to do
set_default(MAC5), and the mac_addrs list is default=MAC5, filters=(MAC1,
MAC2, MAC3, MAC4). At this moment, user can still see MAC3 from the list,
but packets with MAC3 aren't actually received by the PMD.
So need to ensure that the new default address is removed from the rest of
the list if the address was already in the list.

You need to highlight what changed:
When setting a default MAC address with the function
``rte_eth_dev_default_mac_addr_set``,
the address is now removed from the rest of the address list
in order to ensure it is only at index 0 of the list.
ok, highlight it.

Here you can split after the comma.
