[PATCH] ixgb and e1000: Use new function for copybreak tests

From: Joe Perches
Date: Sun May 02 2010 - 20:46:44 EST


There appears to be an off-by-1 defect in the maximum packet size
copied when copybreak is speified in these modules.

The copybreak module params are specified as:
"Maximum size of packet that is copied to a new buffer on receive"

The tests are changed from "< copybreak" to "<= copybreak"
and moved into new static functions for readability.
