r6040: fix multicast operations
The original code does not work well when the number of mulitcast address to handle is greater than MCAST_MAX. It only enable promiscous mode instead of multicast hash table mode, so the hash table function will not be activated and all multicast frames will be recieved in this condition. This patch fixes the following issues with the r6040 NIC operating in multicast: 1) When the IFF_ALLMULTI flag is set, we should write 0xffff to the NIC hash table registers to make it process multicast traffic. 2) When the number of multicast address to handle is smaller than MCAST_MAX, we should use the NIC multicast registers MID1_{L,M,H}. 3) The hashing of the address was not correct, due to an invalid substraction (15 - (crc & 0x0f)) instead of (crc & 0x0f) and an incorrect crc algorithm (ether_crc_le) instead of (ether_crc). 4) If necessary, we should set HASH_EN flag in MCR0 to enable multicast hash table function.
