Looks good, but please don't introduce any more of the 'u8' and 'u32'
nonsense. If types are user-visible, we have to use the '__u32' form. If
not, we might as well use the types that the C language provides. I've
been slowly fixing that throughout the libertas driver as I've been
rewriting it (which task is a bit on hold right now, I know...)

On an SMP host, are you sure we can't end up setting the multicast list
simultaneously on the two logical devices?
