[lvc-project] [PATCH 6.1 15/16] bpf: Remove unnecessary check when updating LPM trie

commit 156c977c539e87e173f505b23989d7b0ec0bc7d8 upstream.

When "node->prefixlen == matchlen" is true, it means that the node is
fully matched. If "node->prefixlen == key->prefixlen" is false, it means
the prefix length of key is greater than the prefix length of node,
otherwise, matchlen will not be equal with node->prefixlen. However, it
also implies that the prefix length of node must be less than
max_prefixlen.

Therefore, "node->prefixlen == trie->max_prefixlen" will always be false
when the check of "node->prefixlen == key->prefixlen" returns false.
Remove this unnecessary comparison.
