[PATCH net-next] net: devmem: drop iterator type check

[Stanislav Fomichev]

sendmsg() with a single iov becomes ITER_UBUF, sendmsg() with multiple
iovs becomes ITER_IOVEC. Instead of adjusting the check to include
ITER_UBUF, drop the check completely. The callers are guaranteed
to happen from system call side and we don't need to pay runtime
cost to verify it.
