[PATCH 2.6.14-rc3] sis190.c: fix multicast MAC filter

From: Aurelien Jarno
Date: Wed Oct 05 2005 - 15:34:12 EST


Hi,

Here is a patch that changes the way the MAC filter is computed for the
multicast addresses. The computation is taken from the SiS GPL driver.

This patch is necessary to get IPv6 working.

Thanks,
Aurelien
