net: Init NAPI dev_list on napi_del 

The recent GRO patches introduced the NAPI removal of devices in
free_netdev.  For drivers that can change the number of queues during
driver operation, the NAPI infrastructure doesn't allow the freeing and
re-addition of NAPI entities without reloading the driver.

This change reinitializes the dev_list in each NAPI struct on delete,
instead of just deleting it (and assigning the list pointers to POISON).
Drivers that wish to remove/re-add NAPI will need to re-initialize the
netdev napi_list after removing all NAPI instances, before re-adding NAPI
devices again.
