Subject: [net-next-2.6 PATCH 15/18] igb: remove unused vmolr value

From: Nick Nunley <nicholasx.d.nunley@...el.com>

In an earlier version of igb_write_mc_addr_list() the vmolr register
was modified. This register is no longer accessed, although the variable
still exists. This patch removes it from the function.
