4 Subject: [PATCH] stmmac: Disable frame filtering completely
5
6 For some [still unknown] reason in ARC SDP boards
7 DW GMAC doesn't enter promiscuous mode if eth0 gets
8 added to the br-lan interface before Ethernet PHY finishes
9 autonegotiation (PHY gets reset on DW GMAC start).
10
11 As a work-around we completely disable frame filtering
12 in GMAC hardware which gives us working bridge that consists
13 of eth0 and wlan0 (USB Wi-Fi dongle). I.e. we finally have
14 working "Dumb AP" setup made of ARC AXS10x boards.
