2.4.27: fixes for 8xx fec.c

Hello, I sent this one some time ago.

I found two problems concerning the fast ethernet driver=20 for ppc 8xx processors (fec.c) in linux kernel version 2.4.26/27=20 and I think in the 2.6 series as well (not confirmed).

First problem is only when CONFIG_USE_MDIO is __not__ set.
How to reproduce:
start the system with fec ethernet, everything works,=20
issue a ifconfig ethX down and ifconfig ethX up and ethernet is not = working anymore.
Fix (or at least a workaround). In fec_enet_open() add a fec_restart() at = the end=20
if CONFIG_USE_MDIO is not set.

2nd problem is with CONFIG_USE_MDIO set:=20
The promiscuous mode/multicast settings are getting lost if link status = changes occurs=20
How to reproduce:
build a bridge with the fec device. Then simply unplug and replug the = ethernet cable.=20
fec_restart() is called which idles all promiscuous mode/multicast = settings.
The bridge will then only forward broadcast frames because the promiscuous = setting is lost.
Fix: call set_multicast_list(dev) at the end of fec_restart() before = ethernet is reenabled.

If there are more questions please write back.
