[PATCH v3 net-next 6/8] net: dsa: netc: enable ingress port filtering lookup by default

[wei.fang@oss.nxp.com]

From: Wei Fang <wei.fang@nxp.com>

The ingress port filtering lookup function involves performing a lookup
against the ingress port filter table (IPFT). If the frame matches an
entry, subsequent frame processing functions will perform corresponding
operations based on the parameters specified in that entry. If no entry
matches the frame, the frame is allowed in, and passed to the next frame
processing function.

In the future, the IPFT will be used to filter PTP frames and support tc
flower. Tracking in software whether any IPFT entry exists for a port in
order to decide whether to enable the ingress port filtering lookup would
increase code complexity unnecessarily. Since enabling the lookup when
the IPFT is empty has no effect on RX frames, enable the ingress port
filtering lookup unconditionally during driver initialization to simplify
code logic.

The only concern is that when deleting an IPFT entry fails, the hardware
will continue filtering RX frames based on that entry. However, we have
no choice. We cannot disable ingress port filter lookup because this
would deactivate other IPFT entries, which is obviously not what we want.
Moreover, deletion failures are almost impossible under normal
circumstances, and we don't need to be bothered by this minor issue.
