Yes. At the time the IFF_UNICAST_FLT flag was added to many drivers by Jiri (added), the e1000e driver did not have the code to configure unicast addresses - it was missed somehow when the other drivers were similarly updated. We currently have a patch in test that does this and it will be pushed upstream after the merge window closes.
