[RFC net-next] strparser: Remove unused strp_process

[RFC net-next] strparser: Remove unused strp_process

[linux]

From: "Dr. David Alan Gilbert" <linux@treblig.org>

strp_process() was addded in 2017 in
commit bbb03029a899 ("strparser: Generalize strparser")

but never used.

Remove it.

....but, hmm I'm not sure how much other cleanup needs doing,
there's still a comment in strp_init() referencing strp_process
and it makes me think there might be other code handling the
'general mode' which strp_process seems to have been added for.

Suggestions?

Dave
