commit eb58c598ce45b7e787568fe27016260417c3d807 upstream. The bug usually affects untrusted VFs, because they are limited to 18 MACs, it affects them badly, not letting to create MAC all filters. Not stable to reproduce, it happens when VF user creates MAC filters when other MACVLAN operations are happened in parallel. But consequence is that VF can't receive desired traffic. Fix counter to be bumped only for new or active filters.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
