In the mlx5_dev_spawn function, devices such as PF, VFs, and SFs obtain the MAC addresses configured in netdev via netlink and store them in the PMD device data, which also includes multicast MAC addresses. Default rules are created for each MAC address to filter traffic accordingly. Previously, multicast MAC address flows were mistakenly disabled, which caused mac_addr_add to stop functioning for multicast MAC addresses, resulting in missed multicast traffic. To address this, default rules for multicast MAC addresses created by PMD should now be set up within mlx5_traffic_enable to properly update and manage multicast MAC address rules.
