Subject: [PATCH] net/bnx2x: fix warnings from invalid assert
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

This driver had a bogus assert which could never happen.
This triggers "expression is always false warnings" with some
compilers which causes build failure.
Just remove it.

Fixes: 6041aa619f9a ("net/bnx2x: fix poll link status")
