Subject: [PATCH] net: bcmgenet: Use BUG_ON instead of if condition followed
 by BUG

Use BUG_ON instead of if condition followed by BUG.

Something to notice in this particular case is that unlikely()
is already being called inside BUG_ON macro.

This issue was detected with the help of Coccinelle.
