net: stmmac: remove unneeded stmmac_poll_controller
[ Upstream commit 3eef8555891026628aa1cc6dbc01db86df88aa26 ]
Using netconsole netpoll_poll_dev could be called from interrupt
context, thus using disable_irq() would cause the following kernel
warning with CONFIG_DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP enabled:
BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/irq/manage.c:137
in_atomic(): 1, irqs_disabled(): 128, non_block: 0, pid: 10, name: ksoftirqd/0
CPU: 0 PID: 10 Comm: ksoftirqd/0 Tainted: G W 5.15.42-00075-g816b502b2298-dirty #117

Since [0] .ndo_poll_controller is only needed if driver doesn't or
partially use NAPI. Because stmmac does so, stmmac_poll_controller
can be removed fixing the above warning.
