This is now working for me, testing with the dst MAC being the MAC on the i210. 
 I set the filter and all the traffic to the destination MAC address gets 
routed to the chosen RX queue.

However, I am still not getting the raw ethernet source filter to work.  Even 
back to back with no other system to "confuse" the stream, I set the filter so 
the source MAC is the same as the MAC on the link partner, send traffic and the 
traffic bounces around the queues as if the filter is not set.
