Subject: [PATCH] net/bnxt: revert reset of L2 filter id

[ upstream commit 82dbef2c853be4162d672529710c3959e15993e1 ]

The L2 filter id is needed in many scenarios particularly when
we are repurposing the same ntuple filter with different destination
queues. This patch reverts a commit in which the L2 filter id was being
reset in clear_ntuple_filter().

Fixes: 1383434c9089 ("net/bnxt: reset L2 filter id once filter is freed")
