sdk_dpaa: accept frames on RX even if larger than MTU

Documentation/networking/netdevices.txt mentions that interfaces must
be able to receive frames at least the size of the configured MTU. The
behavior for received frames larger than the MTU is unspecified. We have
been dropping these frames in software. Remove this behavior and accept
them.
