Hyper-V hosts are known to send RNDIS messages even after we halt the
device in rndis_filter_halt_device(). Remove user visible messages
as they are not really useful.

This happens in between we halt RNDIS device in
rndis_filter_halt_device() and NAPI shutdown from netvsc_device_remove()
while the window is still open.

These messages are of no use for a random user: you change MTU on your
device and see 'got rndis message uninitialized' - what are you supposed
to do? I leave them at debugging level for us to actually debug.
