[NETPOLL]: Introduce a netpoll_info struct
This patch introduces a netpoll_info structure, which the struct net_device
will now point to instead of pointing to a struct netpoll. The reason for
this is two-fold: 1) fields such as the rx_flags, poll_owner, and poll_lock
should be maintained per net_device, not per netpoll; and 2) this is a first
step in providing support for multiple netpoll clients to register against the
same net_device.
The struct netpoll is now pointed to by the netpoll_info structure. As
such, the previous behaviour of the code is preserved.
