[RFC PATCH 2/2] RDMA/nldev: remove the unused dellink link op

[Serhat Kumral <serhatkumral1@gmail.com>]

rxe was the only driver implementing rdma_link_ops.dellink and does
not need it anymore now that its UDP tunnel sockets follow the GID
table. Remove the callback, the nldev code invoking it, the mutex
that serialized it and the now unused ib_device::link_ops field the
invocation looked it up through.
