    Commit 5f78e29c ("qeth: optimize IP handling in rx_mode callback")
    reworked how secondary addresses are managed for qeth devices.
    Instead of dropping & subsequently re-adding all addresses on every
    ndo_set_rx_mode() call, qeth now keeps track of the addresses that are
    currently registered with the HW.
    On a ndo_set_rx_mode(), we thus only need to do (de-)registration
    requests for the addresses that have actually changed.
    
    On L3 devices, the lookup for IPv4 Multicast addresses checks the wrong
    hashtable - and thus never finds a match. As a result, we first delete
    *all* such addresses, and then re-add them again. So each set_rx_mode()
    causes a short period where the IPv4 Multicast addresses are not
    registered, and the card stops forwarding inbound traffic for them.
    
    Fix this by setting the ->is_multicast flag on the lookup object, thus
    enabling qeth_l3_ip_from_hash() to search the correct hashtable and
    find a match there.
