You probably don't need it; it's for enterprise stuff. fcoe-utils seems
to have grown a dependency on it, which is why it's being pulled into
people's systems lately. On my system, anaconda is the only thing that
requires fcoe-utils, so if you have anaconda installed, you can probably
just remove it, remove fcoe-utils and lldpad, and be happy.
It's probably a bug that it's thrashing resources on systems where it
can't *do* anything useful, though.
