I didn't delete the "NETDEV WATCHDOG .." message and it will be still
visible as a marker.

Driver can't distinguish between "real" timeout and "mixed traffic" timeout,
so we don't want to completely disable "dev->netdev_ops->ndo_tx_timeout(dev, i);"
call in watchdog [1]. The goal is to leave functionality in place and
simply remove stack trace to be similar to other BUG prints in that file [2].
