This doesn't honour the prefix passed into configure, or take
account of libvirtd running non-root. Finally, the 'network'
subdirectory is for use by the virtual netowrk driver, not the
QEMU driver. Transient state files stored by the QEMU driver
should go into the path specified in the field 'driver->stateDir'
(from struct qemud_driver)

So, IIUC, this is creating a symlink
eth0@00:11:22:33:44:55 -> 00:aa:bb:cc:ee:dd
And creating a zero length file '00:aa:bb:cc:ee:dd'. This all seems
rather convuluted & overly clever to me. Why can't there just be a
plain file 'eth0' containing the original mac address '00:aa:bb:cc:ee:dd'.
char macstr[VIR_MAC_STRING_BUFLEN];
if (virAsprintf(&path, "%s/%s",
basedir,
net->data.direct.linkdev) < 0) {
virReportOOMError();
goto error;
}
virFormatMacAddr(net->mac, macstr);
if (virFileWriteStr(path, macstr, O_CREAT|O_TRUNC|O_WRONLY, 0700) < 0) {
virReportSystemError(errno, _("Unable to preserve mac for %s"),
net->data.direct.linkdev);
goto error;

We're already passing 'net->mac' into the openMacvtapTap() method
here, so I think it would be better if that function was responsible
for setting the MAC on the device. It isn't nice to have this huge
block of MAC setting code in every caller of openMacvtapTap().

And, likewise here, I'd expect delMacvtap() to restore the original
MAC address of the device, rather than making the caller do it.

This could be far simpler too
char macstr = NULL;
if (virAsprintf(&path, "%s/%s",
basedir,
net->data.direct.linkdev) < 0) {
virReportOOMError();
goto error;

virReportSystemError(errno, _("Unable to preserve mac for %s"),
net->data.direct.linkdev);
goto error;
}
...

There are already (static) functions in src/util/bridge.c, which are
able to get and set the MAC address on network devices. So I think we
should just make them non-static and call them instead of duplicating
it here.
