I think this can be simplified. At least, you had me going around in
circles a while trying to see if WARN_ON() could be triggered from
user space.

If you have more than OWL_EMAC_MAX_MULTICAST_ADDRS MC addresses, you
go into promisc mode. Can you then skip calling
owl_emac_set_multicast(), which appears not to do too much useful when
passed 0?
