[PATCH] Fix 6pack setting of MAC address
Don't check type of sax25_family; dev_set_mac_address has already done that before and anyway, the type to check against would have been ARPHRD_AX25. We only got away because AF_AX25 and ARPHRD_AX25 both happen to be defined to the same value. Don't check sax25_ndigis either; it's value is insignificant for the purpose of setting the MAC address and the check has shown to break some application software for no good reason.
