It is intended behavior. HW specific callbacks: 
dwmac4_update_vlan_hash() / dwxgmac2_update_vlan_hash(), will either use 
Hash method or Perfect method so if priv->dma_cap.vlhash is not 
available then pmatch will be last vid. Otherwise, it will be zero and 
hash will be populated.

I dunno about this.

The original code would use the last "vid" iterated over in the
for_each_set_bit() loop if the priv->dma_cap.vlhash test does not
pass.

Now, it will use zero in that case.

This does not look like an equivalent transformation.
