Do not allocate multicast array memory in multicast filter
configuration function. For failed memory allocations, em(4)/lem(4) called panic(9) which is not acceptable on production box. igb(4)/ixgb(4)/ix(4) allocated the required memory in stack which consumed 768 bytes of stack memory which looks too big. To address these issues, allocate multicast array memory in device attach time and make multicast configuration success under any conditions. This change also removes the excessive use of memory in stack. Reviewed by: jfv
