e1000e: Failure to write SHRA turns on PROMISC mode Previously, the check to turn on promiscuous mode only took into account the total number of SHared Receive Address (SHRA) registers and if the request was for a register within that range. It is possible that the Management Engine might have locked a number of SHRA and not allowed a new address to be written to the requested register. Add a function to determine the number of unlocked SHRA registers. Then determine if the number of registers available is sufficient for our needs, if not then return -ENOMEM so that UNICAST PROMISC mode is activated. Since the method by which ME claims SHRA registers is non-deterministic, also add a return value to the function attempting to write an address to a SHRA, and return a -E1000_ERR_CONFIG if the write fails. The error will be passed up the function chain and allow the driver to also set UNICAST PROMISC when this happens.
