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

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/ice with the following
message:
2023-09-18T13:34:31.064Z|00020|dpdk(pmd-c31/id:22)|ERR|ice_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.

Note: there may be some followup patch later, as some additional check
has been added in ice_prep_pkts.
