Subject: [PATCH] Revert "net: usb: ax88179_178a needs FLAG_SEND_ZLP"

This reverts commit 36a15e1cb134c0395261ba1940762703f778438c.

The usage of FLAG_SEND_ZLP causes problems to other firmware/hardware versions that have no issues.

The FLAG_SEND_ZLP is not safe to use in this context. See:
https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/netdev/patch/1270599787.8900.8.camel@Linuxdev4-laptop/#118378
The original problem needs another way to solve.

Fixes 36a15e1cb134 ("net: usb: ax88179_178a needs FLAG_SEND_ZLP")
