in commit 370608b, bitmap of in-used macvtap devices was introduced.
if there is already macvtap device created not by libvirt,

Resolves: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1321546
NACK.
This is a bonafide bug, but not the right fix. Your patch would go back
and pick up the unused "macvtap0" name rather than trying macvtap2, but
once macvtap0 was in use, the next call (for yet another macvtap device)
would attempt to use macvtap2 (since macvtap0 and macvtap1 were in use)
and would then end up looping in the same manner as it did without your
patch (MACVLAN_MAX_ID times == 8191) and then still reporting a failure.
The proper fix is to call virBitmapNextClearBit() (inside
virNetDevMacVLanReserveID()) with the most recently failed id (or -1)
rather than with 0. This is what I've done in the following patch:
