[Intel-wired-lan] [PATCH 0/2] igb/igbvf: MAC filter handling

[Yury Kylulin]

This small patch set enables support for configuring up to 3 additional MAC
filters for the VF. In some cases applications in the VM require
capabilities to assign several MAC addresses for the SRIOV interface by
leveraging HW offloads and work without enabling unicast promiscuous mode.

The idea was grabbed from implementation of the similar feature for ixgbe
out-of-tree driver.

Some basic tests have been done on i350 and 82576 based cards.
