While I was porting the EMAC for avr32, I used the AT91 as basis,
since they are almost identical.
I noticed on the AT91 there was a bit enabled that makes it act as in
Promiscuos mode, according to AVR32 documentation. So, the hardware
would not filter out the network traffic that wasn't intended to it.

Since I don't have AT91 hardware to test, I didn't change it in AT91
code, just in AVR32 driver, and made a patch for at91. It should be in
the SF tracker.

It may help with this problem.

Kind regards,
