Subject: [RFC net-next PATCH 2/2] net: ethernet: Implement ndo_write_rx_config callback for the 8139cp driver

Implement ndo_write_rx_config for the 8139cp driver

Signed-off-by: I Viswanath <viswanathiyyappan@...il.com>
---
 I modified and set ndo_set_rx_mode to be __cp_set_rx_mode as using
 cp_set_rx_mode as ndo_set_rx_mode callback would have led to a deadlock
 in cp_init_hw()
