Re: [PATCH 1/2] ipvlan: don't loose broadcast MAC when setting MAC filters

The broadcast MAC is supposed to be allowed whenever the device
has an IPv4 address, otherwise ARP requests get dropped on the
floor.  If ndo_set_rx_mode (and thus
ipvlan_set_multicast_mac_filter()) gets called after the address
was added, it blows away the broadcast MAC address in
mac_filters that was added at IPv4 address addition.  Fix that.
