The IGC_MAC_STATE_QUEUE_STEERING bit in mac_table[i].state is utilized to indicate that frames matching the filter are assigned to mac_table[i].queue. This bit is not strictly necessary since we can convey the same information as follows: queue == -1 means queue assignment is disabled, otherwise it is enabled. In addition to make the code simpler, this change fixes some awkward situations where we pass a complete misleading 'queue' value such as in igc_uc_sync(). So this patch removes IGC_MAC_STATE_QUEUE_STEERING and also takes the opportunity to improve the igc_add_mac_filter documentation.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
