+[NET]: Messed multicast lists after dev_mc_sync/unsync
+
+Commit a0a400d79e3dd7843e7e81baa3ef2957bdc292d0 ("[NET]: dev_mcast:
+add multicast list synchronization helpers") from you introduced a new
+field "da_synced" to struct dev_addr_list that is not properly
+initialized to 0. So when any of the current users (8021q, macvlan,
+mac80211) calls dev_mc_sync/unsync they mess the address list for both
+devices.
+
+The attached patch fixed it for me and avoid future problems.
