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.

Confirmed working.

Now running with 9k mtu with no errors, =)

Have you verified that you are actually getting jumbo packets out of the NIC? I had one machine which did standard packets silently using sky2 and jumbo using sk98lin. I was looking for something else with tcpdump and got one of those WTF moments when I saw all the tiny packets.
