From: Mahesh Bandewar <mahe...@google.com> IPvlan checks if the master device is already used by checking a specific device (here it's macvlan device). This is technically not sufficient and it should just ensure the rx_handler is busy or not. This would be a super check that includes macvlan and any other that has already registered rx-handler.
