The synopsys EMAC can be configured for different numbers of multicast hash
bins and perfect filter entries at device creation time and there's no way
to query this configuration information at runtime. As a result, a devicetree
parameter is required in order for the driver to program these filters
correctly for a particular device instance. This patch extends the current
driver by providing a different multicast filter programming function if
different than the currently supported 64 multicast hash bins and 32
perfect unicast addresses. This patch is required to correct multicast
filtering for the Altera Cyclone V SOC.

No objections to the content of the patch, but it would be better to split
it out into two separate patches: one that does the mechanical prototype
and formatting changes, and a smaller one that actually introduces the
functional change. That would make it much easier to review, and to bisect
potential problems when something goes wrong.
