s390/qeth: fix thinko in IPv4 multicast address tracking
[ Upsteam commit bc3ab70584696cb798b9e1e0ac8e6ced5fd4c3b8 ] Commit 5f78e29ceebf ("qeth: optimize IP handling in rx_mode callback") reworked how secondary addresses are managed for qeth devices. Instead of dropping & subsequently re-adding all addresses on every ndo_set_rx_mode() call, qeth now keeps track of the addresses that are currently registered with the HW. On a ndo_set_rx_mode(), we thus only need to do (de-)registration requests for the addresses that have actually changed. On L3 devices, the lookup for IPv4 Multicast addresses checks the wrong hashtable - and thus never finds a match. As a result, we first delete *all* such addresses, and then re-add them again. So each set_rx_mode() causes a short period where the IPv4 Multicast addresses are not registered, and the card stops forwarding inbound traffic for them. Fix this by setting the ->is_multicast flag on the lookup object, thus enabling qeth_l3_ip_from_hash() to search the correct hashtable and find a match there.
