i40e: rework exit flow of i40e_add_fdir_ethtool

Refactor the exit flow of the i40e_add_fdir_ethtool function. Move the
input_label to the end of the function, removing the dependency on
having a non-zero return value. Add a comment explaining why it is ok
not to free the fdir data structure, because the structure is now stored
in the fdir_filter_list.
