[dpdk-dev] [PATCH 08/12] ixgbe/base: remove duplicate setting for fdir no match drop

Do not set FDIRCTRL.DROP_NO_MATCH in ixgbe_init_fdir_perfect_82599(),
this bit is already set in ixgbe_set_fdir_drop_queue_82599() which
makes more sense for drivers that call that function.
This resolves an issue where packets were being dropped when switching
to perfect filters mode.
Setting this bit makes no sense in perfect filters mode for the
driver as we do not want to route all packets that don't match an FDIR
rule to a single queue and instead fall back to RSS.
Drivers that need this bit set can call ixgbe_set_fdir_drop_queue_82599()
and the ones that don't, can preserve the old behavior.
