Subject: [PATCH net-next] bnx2x: Correct logic for pvid configuration.

Commit 05cc5a39ddb7 ("bnx2x: add vlan filtering offload") has introduced
an incorrect logic for checking whether pvid should be configured for
a vf, causing the hypervisor driver to send unneeded ramrods for all of
the vfs each time a pvid has changed.

Looks like this has been hidden by the fact that
VLAN_VALID == (1 << MAC_ADDR_VALID).
Since MAC is almost always set by the hypervisor it simply caused
additional ramrods to be sent instead of preventing the feature.
