[PVE-User] Intel X710 10Gbit network card

Got a little bit further

Turned on stp for this vmbr and now VM gets traffic for about 10-15 
seconds and then no packet flow again.

Note that packets are going from VM to (for example) DHCP server, but 
they will get lost on their way back. They will arrive at the eth5 and 
vmbr, but not to tap, which is connected to the VM by qemu.

Tried to upgrade Intel X710 firmware as well, no luck there. Not to 
mention the drivers small upgrade which I already did yesterday.
