Undo the previous addition of the e1000_watchdog_task workqueue.

Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
---
After some discussion w/ the e1000 maintainers, we came to the
conclusion that the e1000_watchdog_task was at best unnecessary and
at worst caused more problems than it might solve.

This patch reverst the patch which created that workqueue (posted
3/14/2005).
