this is supposed to be fixed by:

    virNetDevMacVLanTapSetup: Work around older systems
    
    Some older systems, e.g. RHEL-6 do not have IFF_MULTI_QUEUE flag
    which we use to enable multiqueue feature. Therefore one gets the
    following compile error there:
    
      CC     util/libvirt_util_la-virnetdevmacvlan.lo
    util/virnetdevmacvlan.c: In function 'virNetDevMacVLanTapSetup':
    util/virnetdevmacvlan.c:338: error: 'IFF_MULTI_QUEUE' undeclared (first use 
in this function)
    util/virnetdevmacvlan.c:338: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported 
only once
    util/virnetdevmacvlan.c:338: error: for each function it appears in.)
    make[3]: *** [util/libvirt_util_la-virnetdevmacvlan.lo] Error 1
    
    So, whenever user wants us to enable the feature on such systems,
    we will just throw a runtime error instead.
