Looking in macvlan_set_multicast_list() it acts in a similar manner to
macvlan_set_mac_address() in the sense that it calls dev_mc_sync(). I
assume what's left is to add macvlan_hash_xxx multicast logic to
map/unmap multicast groups to what macvlan devices want to receive them
and this way the flooding can be removed, correct?


Or.
