[PATCH net 1/3] be2net: Remove an incorrect pvid check in Tx

[Ajit Khaparde]

To work-around a HW bug that corrupts certain packets while inserting
a pvid, the driver needs to invoke a special hack in firmware to avoid
the VLAN tagging in the HW. Since this logic is missing from the driver,
removing the check for pvid.
