    ixgbe: Force VLNCTRL.VFE to be set in all VMDq paths

    When I was adding the code for enabling VLAN promiscuous mode with SR-IOV
    enabled I had inadvertently left the VLNCTRL.VFE bit unchanged as I has
    assumed there was code in another path that was setting it when we enabled
    SR-IOV. This wasn't the case and as a result we were just disabling VLAN
    filtering for all the VFs apparently.

    Also the previous patches were always clearing CFIEN which was always set
    to 0 by the hardware anyway so I am dropping the redundant bit clearing.
