be2net: Remove an incorrect pvid check in Tx
To work-around a HW bug that corrupts certain packets while inserting a pvid, the driver needs to invoke a special hack in firmware to avoid the VLAN tagging in the HW. Since this logic is missing from the driver, removing the check for pvid. Signed-off-by: Ajit Khaparde <ajit.khaparde@emulex.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
