[PATCH RFC] virtio-net: remove useless disable on freeze
disable_cb is just an optimization: it
can not guarantee that there are no callbacks.
I didn't yet figure out whether a callback
in freeze will trigger a bug, but disable_cb
won't address it in any case. So let's remove
the useless calls as a first step.
