Subject: [PATCH net 2/7] Revert "ibmvnic: remove duplicate napi_schedule call in open function"

From: Dany Madden <drt@...ux.ibm.com>

This reverts commit 7c451f3ef676c805a4b77a743a01a5c21a250a73.

When a vnic interface is taken down and then up, connectivity is not
restored. We bisected it to this commit. Reverting this commit until
we can fully investigate the issue/benefit of the change.

Fixes: 7c451f3ef676 ("ibmvnic: remove duplicate napi_schedule call in open function")
