Subject: [PATCH] net/qede: remove primary MAC removal

[ upstream commit 475ff28951b69ce0c46514e8c6a6e8bfd91c5eb3 ]

This was added to dev_stop when set MTU requested vport restart.
We are not requiring vport restart any more with set MTU as it just
needs vport to be inactive and doesn't need the port reconfigured.

Fixes: d121a6b5f781 ("net/qede: fix VF MTU update")
