[v4] net/ixgbe: fix multicast table enable error for VF

  In ixgbe PMD code, all vf ars set with bit IXGBE_VMOLR_ROMPE,
which make vf accept packets that match the MTA table,
if some vf update IXGBE_MTA in function ixgbe_vf_set_multicast,
then all vf will receive packets from these address.
So there is need to set VMOLR register bit ROPE only after this
vf has been set multicast address. If this bit is set when pf host doing
initialization, this vf will receive multicast packets with address
written in MTA table.And also disable MTA when detect
entry number of MAC address is 0 of configuration from vf.
Align to ixgbe pf kernel 5.3.7 code to fix this bug.

Fixes: 00e30184daa0 ("ixgbe: add PF support")

v2:
change patch name and fix typo in log.

v3:
fix typo and disable MTA when detect
all zero MAC address configuration.

v4:
change code to disable MTA when detect
entry number of MAC address is 0 of configuration from vf.

How about change the title to:

"fix over using multicast table for VF"

?

I did below re-word to make it easy to understand.

According to the current implementation, all VFs will set bit
IXGBE_VMOLR_ROMPE during initialization, this cause any VF will
accept packets that match the MTA table. Since the MTA table is shared by
all VFs which means if one VF update MTA table in function
ixgbe_vf_set_multicast, then all other VFs will receive multicast packets 
which cause unnecessary performance overhead.

So it's better to set VF's ROPE bit of register VMOLR only if multicast
address filter is required on that VF. Also, the ROPE bit should
be reset when multicast address filter is requested to clean.

This patch also aligns to the related fix on ixgbe kernel driver 5.3.7.

It's better to write as

	If (nb_entries == 0)

to follow the coding guideline.
