net: Simplify RX queue allocation

This patch move RX queue allocation to alloc_netdev_mq and freeing of
the queues to free_netdev (symmetric to TX queue allocation).  Each
kobject RX queue takes a reference to the queue's device so that the
device can't be freed before all the kobjects have been released-- this
obviates the need for reference counts specific to RX queues.
