[libvirt] [PATCH v2] qemu: handle multicast overflow on macvtap NIC_RX_FILTER_CHANGED
Guest network devices can set 'overflow' when there are a number of multicast
ips configured. For virtio_net, the limit is only 64. In this case, the list
of mac addresses is empty and the 'overflow' condition is set. Thus, the guest
will currently receive no multicast traffic in this state.
When 'overflow' is set in the guest, let's turn this into ALLMULTI on the
host.

v1->v2:
1. check for < 0 in virNetDevSetRcvAllMulti() (Michal Privoznik)
2. restrict overflow check to VIR_NETDEV_RX_FILTER_MODE_NORMAL mode as to
avoid unnecessarily calling rx filter updates for other modes
3. update virNetDevSetRcvAllMulti() call to use guestFilter->multicast.overflow
directly (Michal Privoznik)
