Subject: [PATCH v2 net-next 01/15] net/sched: taprio: delete peek() implementation

There isn't any code in the network stack which calls taprio_peek().
We only see qdisc->ops->peek() being called on child qdiscs of other
classful qdiscs, never from the generic qdisc code. Whereas taprio is
never a child qdisc, it is always root.

This snippet of a comment from qdisc_peek_dequeued() seems to confirm:

	/* we can reuse ->gso_skb because peek isn't called for root qdiscs */

Since I've been known to be wrong many times though, I'm not completely
removing it, but leaving a stub function in place which emits a warning.
