e1000: do not modify tx_queue_len on link speed change

Previously the driver tweaked txqueuelen to avoid false Tx hang reports
seen at half duplex.  This had the effect of overriding user set values
on link change/reset. Testing shows that adjusting only the timeout
factor is sufficient to prevent Tx hang reports at half duplex.

This patch removes all instances of tx_queue_len in the driver.

Based on e1000e patch by Franco Fichtner <franco@lastsummer.de>
