[PATCH net-next 1/2] net: stmmac: Fix VLAN 0 deletion in vlan_del_hw_rx_fltr()

When the "rx-vlan-filter" feature is enabled on a network device, the 8021q
module automatically adds a VLAN 0 hardware filter when the device is
brought administratively up.
For stmmac, this causes vlan_add_hw_rx_fltr() to create a new entry for
VID 0 in the mac_device_info->vlan_filter array, in the following format:
VLAN_TAG_DATA_ETV | VLAN_TAG_DATA_VEN | vid
Here, VLAN_TAG_DATA_VEN indicates that the hardware filter is enabled for
that VID.
However, on the delete path, vlan_del_hw_rx_fltr() searches the vlan_filter
array by VID only, without verifying whether a VLAN entry is enabled. As a
result, when the 8021q module attempts to remove VLAN 0, the function may
mistakenly match a zero-initialized slot rather than the actual VLAN 0
entry, causing incorrect deletions and leaving stale entries in the
hardware table.
Fix this by verifying that the VLAN entry's enable bit (VLAN_TAG_DATA_VEN)
is set before matching and deleting by VID. This ensures only active VLAN
entries are removed and avoids leaving stale entries in the VLAN filter
table, particularly for VLAN ID 0.
