Subject: [PATCH 5.0 20/32] bnxt_en: Improve multicast address setup logic.

From: Michael Chan <michael.chan@...adcom.com>

[ Upstream commit b4e30e8e7ea1d1e35ffd64ca46f7d9a7f227b4bf ]

The driver builds a list of multicast addresses and sends it to the
firmware when the driver's ndo_set_rx_mode() is called.  In rare
cases, the firmware can fail this call if internal resources to
add multicast addresses are exhausted.  In that case, we should
try the call again by setting the ALL_MCAST flag which is more
guaranteed to succeed.
