Use net_device_operations structure and netdev_nullify() to allow for

safe dropping of the netdev ref by the driver while other refs still
exist.

Add netdev_irq() method.  Net device open()/close() methods should no
longer enable or disable IRQs.

Remove rx_quota; it wasn't used anywhere and added too much complexity
to implementing correct interrupt-masking behaviour in pxe_undi.c.
