Vadim Lomovtsev 9b5c4dfb2a net: thunderx: rework mac addresses list to u64 array
It is too expensive to pass u64 values via linked list, instead
allocate array for them by overall number of mac addresses from netdev.

This eventually removes multiple kmalloc() calls, aviod memory
fragmentation and allow to put single null check on kmalloc
return value in order to prevent a potential null pointer dereference.

Addresses-Coverity-ID: 1467429 ("Dereference null return value")
Fixes: 37c3347eb2 ("net: thunderx: add ndo_set_rx_mode callback implementation for VF")

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
