ixgbe: do not update real num queues when netdev is going away

If the netdev is already in NETREG_UNREGISTERING/_UNREGISTERED state, do not
update the real num tx queues. netdev_queue_update_kobjects() is already
called via remove_queue_kobjects() at NETREG_UNREGISTERING time. So, when
upper layer driver, e.g., FCoE protocol stack is monitoring the netdev
event of NETDEV_UNREGISTER and calls back to LLD ndo_fcoe_disable() to remove
extra queues allocated for FCoE, the associated txq sysfs kobjects are already
removed, and trying to update the real num queues would cause something like
below:
