[PATCH] sky2: jumbo frame regression fix

From: Stephen Hemminger
Date: Tue Oct 02 2007 - 21:02:46 EST


Remove unneeded check that caused problems with jumbo frame sizes.
The check was recently added and is wrong.
When using jumbo frames the sky2 driver does fragmentation, so
rx_data_size is less than mtu.
