[PATCH] iseries_veth: Fix broken promiscuous handling

Due to a logic bug, once promiscuous mode is enabled in the iseries_veth
driver it is never disabled.

The driver keeps two flags, promiscuous and all_mcast which have exactly the
same effect. This is because we only ever receive packets destined for us,
or multicast packets. So consolidate them into one promiscuous flag for
simplicity.
