Description
For several years now, the Windows kernel datapath has been always copying the recevied data in to local buffers because we found that any significant queuing can cause problems lower in the stack (i.e., the NIC); even if we queued only 1 indication. So, let's just remove all the code that supported the queuing mode to eliminate unnecessary branches in the kernel datapath code.
