sfc: Remove bogus call to efx_release_tx_buffers()
efx_unregister_netdev() should not call efx_release_tx_buffers() directly, as it is already done when closing the device: efx_net_stop() -> efx_stop_all() -> efx_stop_datapath() -> efx_fini_tx_queue() -> efx_release_tx_buffers(). (This was presumably a workaround for a race between efx_stop_all() and the data path that has since been properly fixed.) Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com>
