vsock/virtio: fix "comparison of distinct pointer types lacks a cast" warning

After backporting commit 581512a6dc93 ("vsock/virtio: MSG_ZEROCOPY
flag support") in CentOS Stream 9, CI reported the following error:

We could solve it by using min_t(), but this operation seems entirely
unnecessary, because we also pass MAX_SKB_FRAGS to iov_iter_npages(),
which performs almost the same check, returning at most MAX_SKB_FRAGS
elements. So, let's eliminate this unnecessary comparison.
