  In ixgbe PMD code, all vf ars set with bit IXGBE_VMOLR_ROMPE,
which make vf accept packets that match the MTA table,
if some vf update IXGBE_MTA in function ixgbe_vf_set_multicast,
then all vf will receive packets from these address.
So thhere is need to set VMOLR register bit ROPE onlty after this
vf has been set multicast address. If this bit is when pf host doing
initialization, this vf will receive multicast packets with address
written in MTA table. Align to ixgbe pf kernel 5.3.7 code to fix this
bug.

Fixes: 00e30184daa0 ("ixgbe: add PF support")

Please correct me if I'm wrong

My understand is MTA table is shared by all VFs (I guess also pf), but what if two VFs both enable multi-cast but with different address filter?
Should we prevent the second one to enable multi-cast if any conflict be detected? Otherwise there still will be unexpected behavior.

Yes, vf share it but not pf, it is used in vf pool switch

Sorry, I do not known what is the confict.
Because IXGBE_VMOLR is vf specific, that is to say, each vf control itself for enable ROMPE.

The conflict what I mean is for example, vf1 set filter for address A while vf2 set filter for address B, then both VFs will receive A and B which is not expected.
But if the only issue for receive unexpected multi-cast packet is just a performance impact then I agree with most of patch, 
one more comment is we may need to reset IXGBE_VMOLR_ROMPE if nb_entries = 0, which is the case to clear all multi-cast filter.
