Fail-safe relied on the removal (RMV) interrupt and on swapping the
Rx/Tx burst functions to "safe" variants to cope with a disappearing
sub-device. When a sub-device does not support the RMV interrupt (for
example a VFIO device whose removal is only reported by the bus as a
device event on the release request), the removal was not detected:
the burst functions kept polling the gone device and traffic was not
failed over to the other sub-device.

Register a bus device-event callback for sub-devices without RMV
interrupt support and run the existing removal handling from it. The
callback is registered and unregistered by the primary process only:
struct sub_device lives in shared memory, so in a secondary process the
registration flag would read as set and sdev->dev would point into the
primary address space; dereferencing it would crash.

With removal now reported reliably, the per-burst safe/fast function
switching is no longer needed; drop failsafe_set_burst_fn() and the
_fast burst variants and keep a single burst path guarded by an
unlikely() check.
