Subject: [PATCH] net: stmmac: remove the limitation of adding vlan in promisc mode

When using brctl to add eqos to a bridge, it will frist set eqos to
promisc mode and then set a VLAN for this bridge with a filer VID value
of 1.

These two error returns limit the use of brctl, resulting in the
inability of the bridge to be enabled on eqos. So remove them.
