[PATCH] net/iavf: remove extra check in iavf vector Tx

In the vector Tx path, the function iavf_xmit_pkts_vec_xxx compares nb_pkts
and the txq->rs_thresh and passes the minimum of these as an argument to
iavf_xmit_fixed_burst_vec_xxx. Inside iavf_xmit_fixed_burst_vec_xxx, the
same check is performed again. This patch removes the redundant check from
the iavf_xmit_fixed_burst_vec_xxx function.
