When an egress qdisc is destroyed, the driver proactively deletes all
associated cloud filters to prevent stale hardware state, decrementing
num_cloud_filters to zero in the process.
The kernel netdev layer is unaware of this implicit cleanup and may
still try to delete the same filters individually. If the filter is
not found in the driver's list and num_cloud_filters is already zero,
return 0 instead of -EINVAL to avoid confusing upper layers that
believe the filter is still offloaded in hardware.
