s390/qeth: remove CARD_FROM_CDEV helper
The cdev-to-card translation walks through two layers of drvdata, with no locking or refcounting (where eg. the ccwgroup core only accesses a cdev's drvdata while holding the ccwlock). This might be safe for now, but any careless usage of the helper has the potential for subtle races and use-after-free's. Luckily there's only one occurrence where we _really_ need it (in qeth_irq()), for any other user we can just pass through an appropriate card pointer.
