net: Fix rxq ref counting

Browse Source 
The rx->count reference is used to track reference counts to the
number of rx-queue kobjects created for the device.  This patch
eliminates initialization of the counter in netif_alloc_rx_queues
and instead increments the counter each time a kobject is created.
This is now symmetric with the decrement that is done when an object is
released.
