ixgbe: Don't report flow director filter's status
For two reasons I want to disable this:
1. Not any part actually check the report status(Alexander Duyck)
2. To report hash value of a packet to stack,
RSS -> 32bits hash value
Perfect match fdir filter -> 13bits hash value
Hashed-based fdir filter -> 31bits hash value
fdir filter might hash on masked tuples for IP address,
so it's still not desirable for usage.
So for now, just stick to RSS 32bits hash value.
