Subject: [net-next-2.6 06/12] ixgbe: remove ntuple display support

From: Alexander Duyck <alexander.h.duyck@...el.com>

This change removes the ntuple display support from ixgbe.  The reason for
this change is to resolve a number of issues in the way display filtering
is handled.

I plan to add support for displaying these filters via the network flow
classifier interface.
