bnx2x: Fix vlan credit issues for VFs
Starting with commit 2dc33bb "bnx2x: Remove the sriov VFOP mechanism", the bnx2x started enforcing vlan credits for all vlan configurations. This exposed 2 issues: - Vlan credits are not returned once a VF is removed; this causes a leak of credits, and eventually will lead to VFs with no vlan credits. - A vlan credit must be set aside for the Hypervisor to use, and should not be visible to the VF. Although linux VFs at the moment do not support vlan configuration [from the VF side] which causes them to be resilient to this sort of issue, Windows VF over linux hypervisors might fail to load as the vlan credits become depleted.
