Re: [PATCH net-next 1/3] virtio_net: set multicast filter list to host

The virtio_net driver never sends the multicast address list to
the host. This is because send command takes a pointer to scatter list
to send but only inserts that one entry into the outgoing scatter list.

This bug has been there since:

This seems to still be under discussion so I'll hold off on this
one for now.

Thanks.
