With this patch touching a mechanism which is used by both IB and EN,
I believe it need to be separated into two patches, the 1st changing only
the core/common logic and the 2nd the EN one. Looking on V2, I see that you
did have there two patches: "[21/25 v2] mlx4: Adding protocol fields
to multicast group"
and  "[22/25 v2] mlx4_en: Attaching Multicast addresses"

Or.
