[PATCH 1/2] net/iavf: fix TSO with big segments

[David Marchand <david.marchand@redhat.com>]

Packets to be segmented with TSO are usually larger than MTU.
Plus, a single segment for the whole packet may be used: in OVS case,
an external rte_malloc'd buffer is used for packets received
from vhost-user ports.

Before this fix, TSO packets were dropped by net/iavf with the following
message:
2023-09-18T14:08:52.739Z|00610|dpdk(pmd-c31/id:11)|ERR|iavf_prep_pkts():
	INVALID mbuf: bad data_len=[2962]

Remove the check on data_len.

Besides, logging an error level message in a datapath function may
slow down the whole application. It is better not to log anything.
