bcm_enet_netpoll does not exist, and causing
bcm63xx_net to fail to build when NET_POLL_CONTROLLER
is defined.

Remove the bogus .ndo_poll_controller = bcm_enet_netpoll

Applied.

This driver doesn't get a lot of build testing, and that's due to the
platform BCM63XX kconfig option it depends upon.  Probably it should
be exposed more widely to perhaps a more broad dependency such as
CONFIG_OF.

There is no OF-aware platform using that driver. Part of the reason
why it does not get much build coverage is the large header
dependencies provided by arch/mips/include/asm/mach-bcm63xx. I will
work on improving that.
