Subject: [net-next PATCH 15/26] igb: remove redundant timer updates and
	cleanup watchdog_task

From: Alexander Duyck <alexander.h.duyck@...el.com>

The igb watchdog task is modifying the watchdog timer twice duing a single
run.  It only needs to be called once to reschedule itself for 2 seconds from
the last time it ran.

In addition I removed the allocation of the mac_info structure since it is
only called twice and is easier to access via the e1000_hw struct.
