SUNRPC: Remove the .svo_enqueue_xprt method

We have never been able to track down and address the underlying
cause of the performance issues with workqueue-based service
support. svo_enqueue_xprt is called multiple times per RPC, so
it adds instruction path length, but always ends up at the same
function: svc_xprt_do_enqueue(). We do not anticipate needing
this flexibility for dynamic nfsd thread management support.

As a micro-optimization, remove .svo_enqueue_xprt because
Spectre/Meltdown makes virtual function calls more costly.

This change essentially reverts commit b9e13cdfac ("nfsd/sunrpc:
turn enqueueing a svc_xprt into a svc_serv operation").
