[PATCH v2 4/4] net/ice: fix TSO with big segments

[David Marchand]

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.

Fixes: ccf33dccf7aa ("net/ice: check illegal packet sizes")

Note: I am still waiting for feedback and there may be some followup patch
later wrt ice_prep_pkts.
