[NET]: Add is_multicast_ether_addr() in include/linux/etherdevice.h
This patch adds is_multicast_ether_addr() to go along with is_valid_ether_addr() and friends. It then changes is_valid_ether_addr() to use the new macro, and fixes up the comment on that function to move implementation details out of the API doco.
