[PATCH 1/1] myri10ge: Remove nonsensical limit in the tx done routine

[Brice Goglin <brice@myri.com>]

Remove nonsensical limit in the tx done routine. Specifically,
the loop will always terminate after processing <= 1 rings worth
of frames, as the mcp index is not refetched, so the removed
conditional could never be true.
