There are 8 egress queues per port, and we want to target port 8 here.
Number of queues is discoverable through sysfs by scanning
/sys/class/net/gphy/queues/tx-*. CPU port number is fixed at 8, we don't
have a mechanism AFAICT to expose that to users, because, of course, we
don't expose the CPU port with DSA.

0x2 = bit 1 is set, which corresponds to the filter ID that was returned
from the previous ethtool::rxnfc command invocation. If ethtool
--config-nfc returned 3, then we would have used filters 0x8, etc.
