net/mlx5e: Update NIC HW stats on demand only
Disable periodic stats update background thread and update stats in
background on demand when ndo_get_stats is called.
Having a background thread running in the driver all the time is bad for
power consumption and normally a user space daemon will query the stats
once every specific interval, so ideally the background thread and its
interval can be done in user space..
