Once upon a time, when r8169 was new, the multicast filter limit code was copied from RTL8139 driver. There the filter limit is even user-configurable. The filtering is hash-based and we don't have perfect filtering. Actually the mc filtering on RTL8125 still seems to be the same as used on 8390/NE2000. So it's not clear to me which benefit it should bring when switching to all-multi mode once a certain number of filter bits is set. More the opposite: Filtering out at least some unwanted mc traffic is better than no filtering. Also the available chip documentation doesn't mention any restriction. Therefore remove the filter limit.

README
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.
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.
