    Removes periodic fcoe_watchdog timer used across all fcoe interface
    maintained in fcoe_hostlist instead added new fcoe_queue_timer
    per fcoe interface.
    
    Added timer is armed only when some pending skb need to be flushed
    as oppose to periodic 1 second fcoe_watchdog, since now
    fcoe_queue_timer is used on demand thus set this to 2 jiffies.
    
    Now fcoe_queue_timer is much simple than fcoe_watchdog using lock to
    process all fcoe interface from fcoe_hostlist.
    
    I noticed +ve performance result with using 2 jiffies timer as
    this helps flushing fcoe_pending_queue quickly.
