[NETPOLL]: Revert two bogus cleanups that broke netconsole.

Based upon a report by Andrew Morton and code analysis done by Jarek Poplawski. This reverts 33f807b ("[NETPOLL]: Kill NETPOLL_RX_DROP, set but never tested.") and c7b6ea2 ("[NETPOLL]: Don't need rx_flags."). The rx_flags did get tested for zero vs. non-zero and therefore we do need those tests and that code which sets NETPOLL_RX_DROP et al. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <[email protected]>
