Disable hardware VLAN filtering if netdev->features VLAN flag is dropped.

In SR-IOV case, there is a use case which needs to disable VLAN filter.
For example, we need to make a network function with VF in virtualized
environment. That network function may be a software switch, a router
or etc. It means that that network function will be an end point which
terminates many VLANs.

In the current implementation, VLAN filtering always be turned on and
VF can receive only 63 VLANs. It means that only 63 VLANs can be terminated
in one NIC.

On the other hand disabling HW VLAN filtering causes a SECURITY issue
that each VF can receive all VLAN packets. That means that a VF can see
any packet which is sent to other VF.

This VLAN filtering can be turned off when SR-IOV is disabled, if not
the operation is rejected, to prevent unexpected behavior.
