[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] doc: announce removal of legacy ethdev filtering API

[Thomas Monjalon]

Deprecation of rte_eth_dev_filter_ctrl() was announced in 2016,
and confirmed last year by avoiding include of rte_eth_ctrl.h.
After 4 years, it is time to complete the removal of the API
which is replaced with rte_flow.
