sfc: don't score irq moderation points for GRO
We already scored points when handling the RX event, no-one else does this, and looking at the history it appears this was originally meant to only score on merges, not on GRO_NORMAL. Moreover, it gets in the way of changing GRO to not immediately pass GRO_NORMAL skbs to the stack. Performance testing with four TCP streams received on a single CPU (where throughput was line rate of 9.4Gbps in all tests) showed a 13.7% reduction in RX CPU usage (n=6, p=0.03).
