e1000: remove e1000_clean_tx_irq call from e1000_netpoll
The call to e1000_clean_tx_irq in e1000_netpoll can race with the call to e1000_clean_tx_irq in e1000_clean. With a small bit of tweaking to to netpoll_send_skb to simulate a system that was under extreme stress, I was able to reproduce these concurrent calls. This can result in multiple frees to the skbs on the tx ring buffer. Dropping this call from e1000_netpoll should be fine since we can rely on the calls in e1000_clean to do what is needed since napi will poll the hardware just after calling poll_controller.
