staging: octeon-ethernet: drop multiple NAPI instances
Octeon Ethernet driver is currently trying to wake up multiple CPU cores for parallel NAPI processing when needed, to cope with the fact that all network interfaces are handled through the same receive queue processed by a single core/interrupt (see http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=137209784914565&w=2). This partially overlaps with generic RPS functionality. Commit a6a39a7fcff5 ("staging: octeon-ethernet: disable load balance for receiving packet when CONFIG_RPS is enabled") already disabled this when RPS is enabled. Let's delete this code altogether as it has issues like packet reordering and potential problems with CPU offlining/onlining. Tested on EdgeRouter Lite.
