How do you remove a filter?

You remove a filter by setting it to 0 on that queue. Works for either MAC or VLAN.

What about filtering on both MAC address and VLAN (our new controller
supports that)?

Setting a MAC filter doesn't blow away the VLAN filter, or vice-versa. So just run 'ip' twice to set the filters. Our hardware does it too, and it works fine for me:

$ ip link set eth1 queue 1 mac 00:11:22:33:44:55
$ ip link set eth1 queue 1 vlan 10

Hmm, this is not what I would expect.  I'm used to filters being defined
independently of queues in a hash table or CAM.  In that case, setting
multiple filters pointing to one queue will result in the logical
disjunction of the filters.  Do I understand correctly that you have
exactly one of each type of filter per queue, with multiple filters
interpreted as a logical conjunction?
