Subject: [PATCH] Fix IXP4xx Ethernet RX with both IFF_ALLMULTI and IFF_PROMISC.

This long standing bug caused IFF_PROMISC to be ignored when
IFF_ALLMULTI was requested.

Also, without any multicast address configured, the driver will use
device MAC address for the multicast filter, instead of accepting all
inbound traffic.
