4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ [ Upstream commit b7b713a8eaf325607d37229f024ad0b9f3e7f320 ] When VFs are created, the MAC address defaults to all zeros, indicating to the VF driver that it should use a random MAC address. However, the PF driver was incorrectly adding this zero MAC to the filter table, along with the VF's randomly generated MAC address. Check for a good address before adding the default filter. While we're at it, make the error message a bit more useful.
