Maybe I didn't read thoroughly enough, but I don't see where it changes
the behavior - in the cases where previously the first byte was set to
0xFE, now you send discourage=true, and in the cases where it didn't,
now you send discourage=false.

Is this a precursor to something else? Does openvswitch maybe not need
this extremely high MAC address?
