Some devices need their multicast filter reset but others are crashed by that.
So the methods need to be separated.

I see this patch was merged and said to be queued for -stable, but I
don't see this fix in any of the stable kernels. Would you please ask
for this patch to be backported to -stable kernels?

I submit networking -stable patches at a time of my own choosing.
Usually 1 to 2 weeks after it gets applied to my tree.

Please be patient.
