Export the MAC addresses of nodes for bare-metal.
The bare-metal hypervisor needs to let the network layer know the MAC
address of each node it has, or TFTP boot will fail, as the MAC
addresses quantum / nova dynamically allocate will not match the
actual MAC of the node as it boots. This change exports the MAC
addresses to the manager, which passes them onto the network driver in
use.
With this change administrators should register all the MAC addresses
of a given node with Nova bare-metal as interfaces, even though that
may duplicate the MAC for PXE boot provisioning. Long term the
dedicated provisioning MAC address will be removed.
