be2net: Revert "make the RX_FILTER command asynchronous" commit
The be_cmd_rx_filter() routine sends a non-embedded cmd to the FW and used a pre-allocated dma memory to hold the cmd payload. This worked fine when this cmd was synchronous. This cmd was changed to asynchronous mode by the commit 8af65c2f("make the RX_FILTER command asynchronous"). So now when there are two quick invocations of this cmd, the 2nd request may end up overwriting the first request, causing FW cmd corruption. This patch reverts the offending commit and hence fixes the regression.
