For the macvlan hash you just use an upper byte.  Is that just a

That gave me an idea, since the default addresses are random
anyway I'm now using an incrementing counter for the upper byte.

Is there not a (relatively) easy way to hash the entire 6 bytes?

I'd prefer to be able to set the MACs to anything I want, without
worrying about trivially hitting a worst-case hash scenario.

Thanks,
Ben
