ixgbe: avoid bringing rings up/down as macvlans are added/removed
This change makes it so that instead of bringing rings up/down for various we just update the netdev pointer for the Rx ring and set or clear the MAC filter for the interface. By doing it this way we can avoid a number of races and issues in the code as things were getting messy with the macvlan clean-up racing with the interface clean-up to bring the rings down on shutdown. With this change we opt to leave the rings owned by the PF interface for both Tx and Rx and just direct the packets once they are received to the macvlan netdev.
