[1/9] drivers/net: remove unnecessary flush_scheduled_work() calls

janz-ican3, sh_eth, skge and vxge don't use workqueue at all and there
is no reason to flush the system_wq.  Drop flush_scheduled_work()
calls and references to workqueue.

I believe you were referencing an older version of the vxge driver.
These is now a reset task that runs on the system workqueue.  Based on
your other patches, the flush_scheduled_work should be replaced with a
cancel_delayed_work_sync(&vdev->reset_task)

Thanks,
Jon
