I can't answer that but ixgbevf_vlan_filter_set() has been implemented for
quite some time and it can no longer be called since the new offload flags are
being enforced now.
I can share that rte_eth_dev_vlan_filter()/ixgbevf_vlan_filter_set() works
properly with the propose change (VLAN traffic flows) where it doesn't without
it.

I actually don't care about extend but simply changed it because it seems to be
in the same situation. I'm happy to leave it out of the patch if that grants
acceptance.
