Subject: [net-next 5/8] ixgbevf: make netif_napi_add and netif_napi_del symmetric

From: John Fastabend <john.r.fastabend@...el.com>

ixgbevf_alloc_q_vectors() calls netif_napi_add for each qvector
where qvectors is determined by the number of msix vectors. This
makes perfect sense.

However on cleanup when ixgbevf_free_q_vectors() is called and
for each qvector we should call netif_napi_del there is some
extra logic to add a dependency on RX queues. This patch makes
the add/del operations symmetric by removing the RX queues
dependency.

Without this if  free_netdev() is called we see the general
protection fault below in netif_napi_del when list_del_init()
is called.
