[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] ixgbe: Fix an unnecessary check in vf rss

[Ouyang Changchun]

To follow up the comments from Wodkowski, PawelX, remove this unnecessary check,
as check_mq_mode has already check the queue number in device configure stage,
if the queue number of vf is not correct, it will return error code and exit,
so it doesn't need check again here in device start stage(note: pf_host_configure
is called in device start stage).

This fixes commit 42d2f78abcb77ecb769be4149df550308169ef0f
