Don't know what happened to the 0/2 cover for this series so here it
is:
This patch is an update to https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/571127/.
The
previous patch was based on sending multicast MAC addresses in the
netlink messages to allow the programming of hardware. It was agreed to
rework this
Some userspace applications need to know about IGMP joins from the kernel
for 2 reasons
1. To allow the programming of multicast MAC filters in hardware
2. To form a multicast FORUS list for non link-local multicast
groups to be sent to the kernel and from there to the interested
party.
