ionic_lif_addr() can be called from:

  1) ->ndo_set_rx_mode() which is under netif_addr_lock_bh()) so it 
must not
     sleep.

  2) Init and setup functions which are in fully preemptible task 
context.

_ionic_lif_rx_mode() has only one call path with BH disabled.

Now that I've had my coffee, let's look at this again - there are 
multiple paths that get us to _ionic_lif_rx_mode():

.ndo_set_rx_mode
   ionic_set_rx_mode,
     _ionic_lif_rx_mode

{ ionic_open, ionic_lif_handle_fw_up, ionic_start_queues_reconfig }
     ionic_txrx_init
       ionic_set_rx_mode
         _ionic_lif_rx_mode

Hrm. Let me stare at it again...
