mlx4: use napi_consume_skb API to get bulk free operations
Bulk free of SKBs happen transparently by the API call napi_consume_skb().
The napi budget parameter is usually needed by napi_consume_skb()
to detect if called from netpoll. In this patch it has an extra meaning.
For mlx4 driver, the mlx4_en_stop_port() call is done outside
NAPI/softirq context, and cleanup the entire TX ring via
mlx4_en_free_tx_buf(). The code mlx4_en_free_tx_desc() for
freeing SKBs are shared with NAPI calls.
To handle this shared use the zero budget indication is reused,
and handled appropriately in napi_consume_skb(). To reflect this,
variable is called napi_mode for the function call that needed
this distinction.
