[PATCH v3] i40e: fix i40evf_add_mac_addr to permit multicast addresses

From: David Harton <hidden>
Date: 2017-09-13 03:21:14
Subsystem: networking drivers, the rest · Maintainers: Andrew Lunn, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

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")
