When a VF goes down, the driver currently sends DEL_VLAN to the PF for
every VLAN filter (ACTIVE -> DISABLE -> send DEL -> INACTIVE), then
re-adds them all on UP (INACTIVE -> ADD -> send ADD -> ADDING ->
ACTIVE). This round-trip is unnecessary because:
1. The PF disables the VF's queues via VIRTCHNL_OP_DISABLE_QUEUES,
which already prevents all RX/TX traffic regardless of VLAN filter
state.
2. The VLAN filters remaining in PF HW while the VF is down is
harmless - packets matching those filters have nowhere to go with
queues disabled.
3. The DEL+ADD cycle during down/up creates race windows where the
VLAN filter list is incomplete. With spoofcheck enabled, the PF
enables TX VLAN filtering on the first non-zero VLAN add, blocking
traffic for any VLANs not yet re-added.
Remove the entire DISABLE/INACTIVE state machinery:
- Remove IAVF_VLAN_DISABLE and IAVF_VLAN_INACTIVE enum values
- Remove iavf_restore_filters() and its call from iavf_open()
- Remove VLAN filter handling from iavf_clear_mac_vlan_filters(),
rename it to iavf_clear_mac_filters()
- Remove DEL_VLAN_FILTER scheduling from iavf_down()
- Remove all DISABLE/INACTIVE handling from iavf_del_vlans()
VLAN filters now stay ACTIVE across down/up cycles. Only explicit
user removal (ndo_vlan_rx_kill_vid) or PF/VF reset triggers VLAN
filter deletion/re-addition.
