Subject: [PATCH net-next 13/13] idpf: remove unreachable code from setting mailbox

From: Michal Swiatkowski <michal.swiatkowski@...ux.intel.com>

Remove code that isn't reached. There is no need to check for
adapter->req_vec_chunks, because if it isn't set idpf_set_mb_vec_id()
won't be called.

Only one path when idpf_set_mb_vec_id() is called:
idpf_intr_req()
 -> idpf_send_alloc_vectors_msg() -> adapter->req_vec_chunk is allocated
 here, otherwise an error is returned and idpf_intr_req() exits with an
 error.

The idpf_set_mb_vec_id() becomes one-liner and it is called only once.
Remove it and set mailbox vector index directly.
