The vlan_mode and vlan_id in function table are provided for VF in QinQ scenario
and they are useless for PF. Querying VF's function table is unsupported now, so
there is no need to expose vlan_id and vlan mode and I'll remove them in my next
patchset. The function table is saved in hw and we expose the mtu to ensure the
mtu saved in hw is same with netdev mtu. The valid filed indicates whether this
function is enabled or not and the hw can judge whether the RQ buffer in host is
sufficient by comparing the values of rq depth, pi and ci.
