Here's corrected patch:

Subject: [net-2.6 PATCH] rndis_wlan: correct multicast_list handling V2

My previous patch (655ffee284dfcf9a24ac0343f3e5ee6db85b85c5) added locking in
a bad way. Because rndis_set_oid can sleep, there is need to prepare multicast
addresses into local buffer under netif_addr_lock first, then call
rndis_set_oid outside. This caused reorganizing of the whole function.
