In enqueue_reorder_recvframe(), checkpatch warns that 'else is not
generally useful after a break or return'. The duplicate packet check
returns false, making the following else on break redundant.

Simplify the loop control flow by using continue when advancing the
list and eliminating the unneeded else statement.

Hi,

there is already a similar patch in the lore:
