Is this a fix? Did you meet any issue? If so, please describe
the issue and add a fixline.

You forgot to add the mac param for vhost_kernel_open_tap().
The patch isn't buildable on my machine.

ARPHRD_ETHER? Please explain.

You can use ETHER_ADDR_LEN.
There is no need to define ETH_ALEN.

There is no need to define this.
