Subject: [PATCH net-next v2] rtnetlink: remove redundant checks for nlattr IFLA_BRIDGE_MODE

The commit d73ef2d69c0d ("rtnetlink: let rtnl_bridge_setlink checks
IFLA_BRIDGE_MODE length") added the nla_len check in rtnl_bridge_setlink,
which is the only caller for ndo_bridge_setlink handlers defined in
low-level driver codes. Hence, this patch cleanups the redundant checks in
each ndo_bridge_setlink handler function.
