net: txgbe: fix FDIR filter leak on remove
Perfect FDIR filters can be added while the interface is down and are
kept on the software list for later restore. unregister_netdev() only
calls ndo_stop when the device is up, so txgbe_fdir_filter_exit() in
txgbe_close() is skipped in that case and the filters are leaked on
driver remove. Free the filter list from txgbe_remove() as well.
Default status is the baseline for the product, each version can override it (e.g. patched versions marked unaffected).
