Subject: net: fec: fix multicast filtering hardware setup
From: Rui Sousa <rui.sousa@xxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit 01f8902bcf3ff124d0aeb88a774180ebcec20ace ]
Fix hardware setup of multicast address hash:
- Never clear the hardware hash (to avoid packet loss)
- Construct the hash register values in software and then write once
to hardware
