net: Add support for device specific address syncing
This change provides a function to be used in order to break the ndo_set_rx_mode call into a set of address add and remove calls. The code is based on the implementation of dev_uc_sync/dev_mc_sync. Since they essentially do the same thing but with only one dev I simply named my functions __dev_uc_sync/__dev_mc_sync. I also implemented an unsync version of the functions as well to allow for cleanup on close. Signed-off-by: Alexander Duyck <alexander.h.duyck@intel.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
