ethtool: Don't flush n-tuple list from ethtool_reset()

The n-tuple list should be flushed if and only if the ETH_RESET_FILTER
flag is set and the driver is able to reset filtering/flow direction
hardware without also resetting a component whose flag is not set.
This test is best left to the driver.
