Subject: [PATCH] nfp: add basic multicast filtering

From: Jakub Kicinski <jakub.kicinski@...ronome.com>

We currently always pass all multicast traffic through.
Only set L2MC when actually needed.  Since the driver
was not making use of the capability to filter out mcast
frames, some FW projects don't implement it any more.
Don't warn users if capability is not present (like we
do for promisc flag).  The lack of L2MC capability is
assumed to mean all multicast traffic goes through.
