Whenever the interface is brought up/down then set_rx_mode function is called by the stack which enables promisc/allmulti MCAM entries. But there are cases when driver brings interface down and then up such as while changing number of channels. In these cases promisc/allmulti MCAM entries are left disabled as set_rx_mode callback is not called. This patch enables these MCAM entries in all such cases.

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.
