    e1000e: fix .ndo_set_rx_mode for 82579 · 69e1e019
    Bruce Allan authored
    Secondary unicast and multicast addresses are added to the Receive
    Address registers (RAR) for most parts supported by the driver.  For
    82579, there is only one actual RAR and a number of Shared Receive Address
    registers (SHRAR) that are shared among the driver and f/w which can be
    reserved and write-protected by the f/w.  On this device, use the SHRARs
    that are not taken by f/w for the additional addresses.
    
    Add a MAC ops function pointer infrastructure (similar to other MAC
    operations in the driver) for setting RARs, introduce a new rar_set
    function for 82579 and convert the existing code that sets RARs on other
    devices to a generic rar_set function.
