Subject: [PATCH v1] net/i40e: remove redundant number of packets check
For i40e_xmit_pkts_vec_xx function, it checks nb_pkts to ensure nb_pkts does
not cross rs_thresh.
However, in i40e_xmit_fixed_burst_vec_xx function, this check will be
performed again. To improve code, delete this redundant check.

Hi Qi,
This patch is not acked by the i40e maintainers.
And this is changing the datapath for the -rc3, two weeks before
the release. Is it tested enough?
What is the gain with this patch, I don't see any numbers
in the commit log.
If the gain is small, can we postpone this patch to next
release instead of getting it for -rc3?
