Subject: [net 2/3] ixgbe: Fix a memory leak in IEEE DCB

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

The driver was freeing memory in shutdown instead of remove.  As a result
we were leaking memory if IEEE DCB was enabled and we loaded/unloaded the
driver.  This change moves the freeing of the memory into the remove
routine where it belongs.
