Jacob Keller 8946b56354 i40evf: use __dev_[um]c_sync routines in .set_rx_mode 
Similar to changes done to the PF driver in commit 6622f5cdba ("i40e:
make use of __dev_uc_sync and __dev_mc_sync"), replace our
home-rolled method for updating the internal status of MAC filters with
__dev_uc_sync and __dev_mc_sync.

These new functions use internal state within the netdev struct in order
to efficiently break the question of "which filters in this list need to
be added or removed" into singular "add this filter" and "delete this
filter" requests.

This vastly improves our handling of .set_rx_mode especially with large
number of MAC filters being added to the device, and even results in
a simpler .set_rx_mode handler.

Under some circumstances, such as when attached to a bridge, we may
receive a request to delete our own permanent address. Prevent deletion
of this address during i40evf_addr_unsync so that we don't accidentally
stop receiving traffic.

README 

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
