gianfar: do not touch net queue in adjust_link phylib callback

Browse Source 
If the net queue has not been started, we'll get this nice oops
and non-working ethernet:

PHY: 0:01 - Link is Up - 1000/Full
------------[ cut here ]------------
kernel BUG at net/core/dev.c:1328!
Oops: Exception in kernel mode, sig: 5 [#1]

Since the driver is using phylib (which is doing netif_carrier_on/off()),
we should simply remove netif_tx_schedule_all() from adjust_link().
