Re: [PATCH] r8169: Disable multicast filter for RTL_GIGA_MAC_VER_46

[Patrick Thompson]

Hello,

I was wondering if this should be extended to all RTL_GIGA_MAC_VERs
greater than 35 as well.

Realtek responded to me but I was slow to get them packet captures
that they needed. I am hoping to restart things and get back to this
over the finish line if it's a valid patch.

I will add the appropriate tags and annotations once I hear back.
