    net: systemport: do not clear IFF_MULTICAST flag · 3b140a67
    Florian Fainelli authored
    The SYSTEMPORT Ethernet MAC supports multicast just fine, it just lacks
    any sort of Unicast/Broadcast/Multicasting filtering at the Ethernet MAC
    level since that is handled by the front end Ethernet switch, but that
    is properly handled by bcm_sysport_set_rx_mode().
    
    Some user-space applications might be relying on the presence of this
    flag to prevent using multicast sockets, this also prevents that
    interface from joining the IPv6 all-router mcast group.
