[net-next PATCH] ixgbe: Remove IXGBE_FLAG_IN_NETPOLL since it doesn't do anything

[Alexander Duyck]

This patch removes some dead code from the cleanup path for ixgbe.

Setting and clearing the flag doesn't do anything since all we are doing is
setting the flag, scheduling napi, clearing the flag and then letting
netpoll do the polling cleanup.  As such it doesn't make much sense to have
it there.

This patch also removes one minor white-space error.
