Subject: net: fec: fix multicast filtering hardware setup

From: Rui Sousa <rui.sousa@nxp.com>


[ Upstream commit 01f8902bcf3ff124d0aeb88a774180ebcec20ace ]

Fix hardware setup of multicast address hash:
- Never clear the hardware hash (to avoid packet loss)
- Construct the hash register values in software and then write once
to hardware
