Thanks for responding! Really appreciate.

I didn't set up anything explicitly for IPv4/IPv6 multicast. As part of
my testing, I dump the packets going through the slave interfaces attached
to the hsr interface (for example my Ethernet interfaces eth2 and eth3
are attached to the hsr interface and I dump the packets at the egress
of eth2 and eth3 in my driver along with that at hsr xmit function). As
soon as I create the hsr interface, I see a bunch of packets going directly
through the lower interface, not through the upper one (i.e hsr interface)
and these are of eth_type = 86 dd. Please ignore my reference to 
NETDEV_CHANGEUPPER for now as it was wild guess.

I have not done any debugging, but the WARN_ONCE which I have placed
in the lower level driver looking for eth_type = 86 dd provided the 
above trace.
