It wasn't difficult to backport this patch to 2.6.31.12....
I just tested this on an 85998 NIC and 50 MAC-VLANs worked fine.
The NIC doesn't show as PROMISC in any way I can detect, but I guess
it must actually be in PROMISC mode:
[root@i7-1qc-1 ~]# cat /sys/class/net/eth11/flags
0x1003
[root@i7-1qc-1 ~]# ip link show dev eth11
2: eth11: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state UP qlen 1000
link/ether 00:e0:ed:11:25:12 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
Thanks,
Ben
