Jeff, Hiroshi, I find this change-log to be non sufficient, it doesn't
describe the semantics of a VF which is now put into multicast
promiscuous mode. In the native (non SRIOV mode) multicast promiscuous
means get all multicast packets are arrive to the port. Is this the
case too here? if yes, just spell it out, if not or not exactly,
describe it. Also say what are the security implications, e.g that
this VF needs to be trusted or alike.
