i40e: fix deleting mac filters

There exists a bug in which deleting a mac filter does not actually
occur.  The driver reports that the filter has been deleted with no
error.  The problem occurs because the wrong cmd_flag is passed to the
firmware when deleting the filter.  The firmware reports an error back
to the driver but it is expressly ignored.

This fixes the bug by using the correct flag when deleting a filter.
Without this patch, deleted filters remain in firmware and function as
if they had not been deleted.
