xen-netfront: Remove BUGs on paged skb data which crosses a page boundary
These BUGs can be erroneously triggered by frags which refer to tail pages within a compound page. The data in these pages may overrun the hardware page while still being contained within the compound page, but since compound_order() evaluates to 0 for tail pages the assertion fails. The code already iterates through subsequent pages correctly in this scenario, so the BUGs are unnecessary and can be removed.
