Subject: [PATCH v3] i40e: fix i40evf_add_mac_addr to permit multicast
addresses
From: David Harton <redacted>
The i40e maintains a single MAC filter table for both unicast and multicast
addresses. The i40e_validate_mac_addr function was preventing multicast
addresses from being added to the table via i40evf_add_mac_addr. Fixed
the issue by adjusting the check in i40evf_add_mac_addr.
Fixes: 4861cde46116 ("i40e: new poll mode driver")
Fixes: 97ac72aa71a9 ("i40e: support setting VF MAC address")
