net: openvswitch: Remove invalid comment
During pre-upstream development, the openvswitch datapath used a custom hashtable to store vports that could fail on delete due to lack of memory. However, prior to upstream submission, this code was reworked to use an hlist based hastable with flexible-array based buckets. As such the failure condition was eliminated from the vport_del path, rendering this comment invalid. Signed-off-by: Aaron Conole <aconole@bytheb.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
