[PATCH net v2 2/3] net: bcmgenet: synchronize use of bcmgenet_set_rx_mode()
The ndo_set_rx_mode function is synchronized with the
netif_addr_lock spinlock and BHs disabled. Since this
function is also invoked directly from the driver the
same synchronization should be applied.

Fixes: 72f96347628e ("net: bcmgenet: set Rx mode before starting netif")
