[RFC PATCH V3 08/16] netback: remove unwanted notification generation during NAPI processing.

[Wei Liu <wei.liu2@citrix.com>]

In original implementation, tx_build_gops tends to update req_event
pointer every time it sees tx error or finish one batch. Remove those
code to only update req_event pointer when we really want to shut down
NAPI.
