This patch introduces the following netlink interface to set
MAC and VLAN filters on an network interface. It can be used to
set RX filter on any network interface (if supported by the driver) and
also on a SRIOV VF via its PF

Interface to set RX filter on a SRIOV VF
[IFLA_VF_RX_FILTERS] = {
	[IFLA_VF_RX_FILTER] = {
		[IFLA_RX_FILTER_VF]
		[IFLA_RX_FILTER_ADDR] = {
			[IFLA_RX_FILTER_ADDR_FLAGS]
			[IFLA_RX_FILTER_ADDR_UC_LIST] = {
				[IFLA_ADDR_LIST_ENTRY]
			}
			[IFLA_RX_FILTER_ADDR_MC_LIST] = {
				[IFLA_ADDR_LIST_ENTRY]
			}
		}
		[IFLA_RX_FILTER_VLAN] = {
			[IFLA_RX_FILTER_VLAN_BITMAP]
		}
	}
	...
}

Interface to set RX filter on any network interface.:
[IFLA_RX_FILTER] = {
	[IFLA_RX_FILTER_VF]
	[IFLA_RX_FILTER_ADDR] = {
		[IFLA_RX_FILTER_ADDR_FLAGS]
		[IFLA_RX_FILTER_ADDR_UC_LIST] = {
			[IFLA_ADDR_LIST_ENTRY]
		}
		[IFLA_RX_FILTER_ADDR_MC_LIST] = {
			[IFLA_ADDR_LIST_ENTRY]
		}
	}
	[IFLA_RX_FILTER_VLAN] = {
		[IFLA_RX_FILTER_VLAN_BITMAP]
	}
}
