Hey,

I've encountered that same problem a few days ago, found this thread
and these (unmerged) patches, "ported" them to a more current version
of the kernel (wasn't much work, let's be honest), and I was wondering
if it would be possible to get them merged, because this is still a
problem with cdc_ncm.

Here's the three "up to date" patches (based on 5.8-rc5), they work
insofar as I'm running with them, the bug isn't there anymore (I get
ethernet multicast packets correctly), and there's no obvious bug. I'm
not a dev though, so I have no idea if these are formatted correctly,
if the patch separation is correct, or anything like that, I just think
it would be great if this could be merged into mainline!

You need to submit them in a format they can be applied in, as well as
taking care of the issues that caused Oliver to not agree with them.

thanks,
