Subject[PATCH 32/61] IPoIB: Rejoin all multicast groups after a port event
-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.
------------------
From: Eli Cohen <eli@mellanox.co.il>

When ipoib_ib_dev_flush() is called because of a port event, the
driver needs to rejoin all multicast groups, since the flush will call
ipoib_mcast_dev_flush() (via ipoib_ib_dev_down()).  Otherwise no
(non-broadcast) multicast groups will be rejoined until the networking
core calls ->set_multicast_list again, and so multicast reception will
be broken for potentially a long time.
