[PATCH net v2] hinic: remove unused ethtool RSS user configuration buffers

[Chenguang Zhao <chenguang.zhao@linux.dev>]

From: Chenguang Zhao <zhaochenguang@kylinos.cn>

rss_indir_user and rss_hkey_user are allocated and filled in
__set_rss_rxfh() when the user configures RSS via ethtool, but
nothing ever reads them. hinic_get_rxfh() fetches the state from
the device, and the hardware is programmed from the original
indir/key arguments. These buffers only leaked on driver unload.

Drop the unused allocations, memcpys, and struct fields.

Fixes: 4fdc51bb4e92 ("hinic: add support for rss parameters with ethtool")
