  When the ETH spec is empty MLX4 PMD doesn't allow match other criteria,
which means the flow should be promisc one.

Currently, PMD validates this by setting flow->promisc bit when ETH spec
is empty and checking whether there is other rte_flow_item followed
when flow->promisc is on.

However, commit [1] adds support to match traffic only on VLAN id, the
above validation logic should be changed accordingly.

This patch changes the above validate logic by skipping flow->promisc
check if this item is VLAN.
