net: calxedaxgmac: fix various errors in xgmac_set_rx_mode
Fix xgmac_set_rx_mode to handle several conditions that were not handled correctly as Lennert Buytenhek describes: If we have, say, 100 unicast addresses, and 5 multicast addresses, the unicast address count check will evaluate to true, and set use_hash to true. The multicast address check will however evaluate to false, and use_hash won't be set to true again, and XGMAC_FRAME_FILTER_HMC won't be OR'd into XGMAC_FRAME_FILTER, but since use_hash was still true from the unicast check, netdev_for_each_mc_addr() will program the multicast addresses into the hash table instead of using the MAC address registers, but since the HMC bit wasn't set, the hash table won't be checked for multicast addresses on receive, and we'll stop receiving multicast packets entirely. Also, there is no code that zeroes out MAC address registers reg..31 at the end of this function, meaning that under the right conditions, unicast/multicast addresses that were previously in the filter but were then deleted won't be cleared out.
