iavf: remove active_cvlans and active_svlans bitmaps

Browse source 
[ Upstream commit 9c85b7fa12 ]

The VLAN filters info is currently being held in a list and 2 bitmaps
(active_cvlans and active_svlans). We are experiencing some racing where
data is not in sync in the list and bitmaps. For example, the VLAN is
initially added to the list but only when the PF replies, it is added to
the bitmap. If a user adds many V2 VLANS before the PF responds:

    while [ $((i++)) ]
        ip l add l eth0 name eth0.$i type vlan id $i

we might end up with more VLAN list entries than the designated limit.
Also, The "ip link show" will show more links added than the PF limit.

On the other and, the bitmaps are only used to check the number of VLAN
filters and to re-enable the filters when the interface goes from DOWN to
UP.

This patch gets rid of the bitmaps and uses the list only. To do that,
the states of the VLAN filter are modified:
1 - IAVF_VLAN_REMOVE: the entry needs to be totally removed after informing
  the PF. This is the "ip link del eth0.$i" path.
2 - IAVF_VLAN_DISABLE: (new) the netdev went down. The filter needs to be
  removed from the PF and then marked INACTIVE.
3 - IAVF_VLAN_INACTIVE: (new) no PF filter exists, but the user did not
  delete the VLAN.
