I was able to add mcast address for eth0/eth1, but not finding a way to
add mcast entries to eth1.100 interface. I gone through Linux network
stack and didn't find a way where stack asks the driver to add mcast
address for vlan interfaces. *_Network Experts_* can help us here.

For now this is the only possible option that can be used.
