bnxt_en: stop packet flow during bnxt_queue_stop/start

Browse source

The current implementation when resetting a queue while packets are
flowing puts the queue into an inconsistent state.

There needs to be some synchronisation with the FW. Add calls to
bnxt_hwrm_vnic_update() to set the MRU for both the default and ntuple
vnic during queue start/stop. When the MRU is set to 0, flow is stopped.
Each Rx queue belongs to either the default or the ntuple vnic.

With calling bnxt_hwrm_vnic_update() the calls to napi_enable() and
napi_disable() must be removed for reset to work on a queue that has
active traffic flowing e.g. iperf3.
