ixgbe: Be more careful when modifying MAC filters
[ Upstream commit d14c780c11fbc10f66c43e7b64eefe87ca442bd3 ] This change makes it so that we are much more explicit about the ordering of updates to the receive address register (RAR) table. Prior to this patch I believe we may have been updating the table while entries were still active, or possibly allowing for reordering of things since we weren't explicitly flushing writes to either the lower or upper portion of the register prior to accessing the other half.
