> Due to an inverted conditional, the driver was marking all of its MAC filters
> for deletion every time set_rx_mode was called. Depending upon the timing
> of the calls to set_rx_mode and the processing of the admin queue, the
> driver would (accidentally) end up with a varying number of functional filters.
> 
> Correct this logic so that MAC filters are added and removed correctly.
> Add a check for the driver's "hardware" MAC address so that this filter
> doesn't get removed incorrectly.
