ibmvnic: drop bad optimization in reuse_tx_pools()
When trying to decide whether or not reuse existing rx/tx pools we tried to allow a range of values for the pool parameters rather than exact matches. This was intended to reuse the resources for instance when switching between two VIO servers with different default parameters. But this optimization is incomplete and breaks when we try to change the number of queues for instance. The optimization needs to be updated, so drop it for now and simplify the code.
