IB/hfi1: allocate dummy net_device dynamically
Embedding net_device into structures prohibits the usage of flexible
arrays in the net_device structure. For more details, see the discussion
at [1].
Un-embed the net_device from struct hfi1_netdev_rx by converting it
into a pointer. Then use the leverage alloc_netdev() to allocate the
net_device object at hfi1_alloc_rx().
