[ Upstream commit 2ba31cd93784b61813226d259fd94a221ecd9d61 ]

Without checking for IFF_MULTICAST flag, it is wrong to assume multicast
filtering is always enabled. By checking against IFF_MULTICAST, now
the driver behaves correctly when the multicast support is toggled by below
command:-
ip link set <devname> multicast off|on
