Subject: [PATCH net] igb: fix bit_shift to be in [1..8] range

From: Aleksandr Loktionov <aleksandr.loktionov@...el.com>

In igb_hash_mc_addr() the expression:
        "mc_addr[4] >> 8 - bit_shift", right shifting "mc_addr[4]"
shift by more than 7 bits always yields zero, so hash becomes not so different.
Add initialization with bit_shift = 1 and add a loop condition to ensure
bit_shift will be always in [1..8] range.

Fixes: 9d5c824399de ("igb: PCI-Express 82575 Gigabit Ethernet driver")
