xen-netback: Don't deschedule NAPI when carrier off
In the patch called "xen-netback: Turn off the carrier if the guest is not able to receive" NAPI was descheduled when the carrier was set off. That's not what most of the drivers do, and we don't have any specific reason to do so as well, so revert that change.
