i40e: Do not enable default port on the VEB
Enabling the default port on the VEB causes all outgoing traffic from virtual functions to be copied to the physical function. The default port is only supposed to be used if you wish to bridge the physical function to a SW switch such as Open vSwitch or the Linux bridge. That allows the SW switch to route traffic to VMs that are not using a virtual function. Eventually we'll want to implement the ndo_fdb_add, ndo_fdb_del, and ndo_fdb_dump functions. The ndo_fdb_add function would set the default port on the VEB in those cases where the MAC/VLAN address filters have overflowed. Normally we would not want to use it.
