net: veth: Disable netpoll support
The current implementation of netpoll in veth devices leads to
suboptimal behavior, as it triggers warnings due to the invocation of
__netif_rx() within a softirq context. This is not compliant with
expected practices, as __netif_rx() has the following statement:
lockdep_assert_once(hardirq_count() | softirq_count());
Given that veth devices typically do not benefit from the
functionalities provided by netpoll, Disable netpoll for veth
interfaces.
