Subject: [PATCH net v5 3/5] net: stmmac: fix missing IFF_MULTICAST check in dwmac4_set_filter

From: "Verma, Aashish" <aashishx.verma@...el.com>

Without checking for IFF_MULTICAST flag, it is wrong to assume multicast
filtering is always enabled. By checking against IFF_MULTICAST, now
the driver behaves correctly when the multicast support is toggled by below
command:-
  ip link set <devname> multicast off|on
