[PATCH net-next] iavf: Avoid a memory allocation in iavf_print_link_message()

[Christophe JAILLET]

IAVF_MAX_SPEED_STRLEN is only 13 and 'speed' is allocated and freed within
iavf_print_link_message().

'speed' is only used with some snprintf() and netdev_info() calls.

So there is no real use to kzalloc()/free() it. Use the stack instead.
This saves a memory allocation.
