net: disallow to specify multicast MAC address
[Assigning a multicast MAC address to a NIC leads to confusing behavior. Reject multicast MAC addresses so users are alerted to their error straight away. The "net/eth.h" in6_addr rename prevents a name collision with <netinet/in.h> on Linux. -- Stefan] Signed-off-by: Dmitry V.
