Subject: [net-next 12/13] i40e: explicitly fail on extended MAC field for ethtool_rx_flow_spec

From: Jacob Keller <jacob.e.keller@...el.com>

Although we will fail the filter later due to checking flow_type which
will have a bogus invalid type, it is possible future refactoring will
remove this hidden failure case. Avoid a possible issue in the future by
explicitly checking the flow type at the start.
