[patch 24/69] BNX2: Fix TSO problem with small MSS.

[Chris Wright <chrisw@sous-sol.org>]

-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.
---------------------

From:  <mchan@broadcom.com>

Remove the check for skb->len greater than MTU when doing TSO.  When
the destination has a smaller MSS than the source, a TSO packet may
be smaller than the MTU at the source and we still need to process it
as a TSO packet.

Thanks to Brian Ristuccia <bristuccia@starentnetworks.com> for
reporting the problem.
