Thank you for your reply. Personally, I think that when disabling promiscuous/all-multicast mode, the corresponding flag should be set based on the return value. This is because, at the driver implementation level, the driver may check the flag to determine whether the corresponding disable operation needs to be executed. If the flag is set before the operation is completed, the driver will not execute the operation when it checks the flag, as it will find that the flag has already been set.

Why bother? This is not critical path.

Original code looked fine
