ixgbe: Streamline MC filter setup for VFs The driver was calling the set Rx mode function for every multicast filter set by the VF. When starting many VMs where each might have multiple VLAN interfaces this would result in the function being called hundreds or even thousands of times. This is unnecessary for the case of the imperfect filters used in the MTA and has been streamlined to be more efficient.
