net: stmmac: remove redundant racy tear-down in stmmac_dvr_remove()

While the network device is registered, it is published to userspace,
and thus userspace can change its state. This means calling
functions such as stmmac_stop_all_dma() and stmmac_mac_set() are
racy.

Moreover, unregister_netdev() will unpublish the network device, and
then if appropriate call the .ndo_stop() method, which is
stmmac_release(). This will first call phylink_stop() which will
synchronously take the link down, resulting in stmmac_mac_link_down()
and stmmac_mac_set(, false) being called.

stmmac_release() will also call stmmac_stop_all_dma().

Consequently, neither of these two functions need to called prior
to unregister_netdev() as that will safely call paths that will
result in this work being done if necessary.

Remove these redundant racy calls.
