Subject: [PATCH 3/8] [Blackfin] EMAC driver: bf537 MAC multicast hash filtering patch

From: Aidan Williams <aidan@...ta.com.au>

The bf537 Ethernet MAC driver in the 2007R1.1-RC3 kernel (and the
current kernel) do not implement multicast hash filtering. This
is a performance problem if you have lots of multicast on your network.

This patch plugs the right bits into the multicast hash registers.
