generic: drop extra-old-deprecated pending fix patch for sch codel

Browse source 
Patch 620-net_sched-codel-do-not-defer-queue-length-update.patch is
actually an ancient patch that somehow manage to be ported for 7 solid
years.

This comes from [1] where a fix patch was proposed. Nobody notice that
the proposed patch was actually rejected upstream in favor of [2]. And
the upstream fix patch is present in kernel from version 4.18.

This means that we were actually fixing for a non existant bug and maybe
introducing regression down the line.

Drop the patch for good as we already have a fix for it in flace for a
long time.

Subject: [PATCH] net_sched/codel: do not defer queue length update
When codel wants to drop last packet in ->dequeue() it cannot call
qdisc_tree_reduce_backlog() right away - it will notify parent qdisc
about zero qlen and HTB/HFSC will deactivate class. The same class will
be deactivated second time by caller of ->dequeue(). Currently codel and
fq_codel defer update. This triggers warning in HFSC when it's qlen != 0
but there is no active classes.
This patch update parent queue length immediately: just temporary increase
qlen around qdisc_tree_reduce_backlog() to prevent first class deactivation
if we have skb to return.
This might open another problem in HFSC - now operation peek could fail and
deactivate parent class.
