Eric W. Biederman b6bacd550c netpoll: Don't drop all received packets.
Change the strategy of netpoll from dropping all packets received
during netpoll_poll_dev to calling napi poll with a budget of 0
(to avoid processing drivers rx queue), and to ignore packets received
with netif_rx (those will safely be placed on the backlog queue).

All of the netpoll supporting drivers have been reviewed to ensure
either thay use netif_rx or that a budget of 0 is supported by their
napi poll routine and that a budget of 0 will not process the drivers
rx queues.

Not dropping packets makes NETPOLL_RX_DROP unnecesary so it is removed.

npinfo->rx_flags is removed  as rx_flags with just the NETPOLL_RX_ENABLED
flag becomes just a redundant mirror of list_empty(&npinfo->rx_np).
