Subject: [PATCH] be2net: Remove useless DMA-32 fallback configuration

As stated in [1], dma_set_mask() with a 64-bit mask never fails if
dev->dma_mask is non-NULL.
So, if it fails, the 32 bits case will also fail for the same reason.

So if dma_set_mask_and_coherent() succeeds, 'netdev->features' will have
NETIF_F_HIGHDMA in all cases. Move the assignment of this feature in
be_netdev_init() instead be_probe() which is a much logical place.

Simplify code and remove some dead code accordingly.
