[PATCH] Fix 6pack setting of MAC address

Browse Source 
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.
