[net-next 7/7] fm10k: clarify action when updating the VLAN table

From: Jeff Kirsher <hidden>

Subsystem: intel ethernet drivers, networking drivers, the rest · Maintainers: Tony Nguyen, Przemek Kitszel, Andrew Lunn, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

From: Ngai-Mint Kwan <redacted>

Clarify the comment for when entering promiscuous mode that we update
the VLAN table. Add a comment distinguishing the case where we're
exiting promiscuous mode and need to clear the entire VLAN table.
