We fundamentally do not have a maximum segement size for devices with a
virt boundary. So don't bother checking it, especially given that the
existing checks didn't properly work to start with as we never update
bi_seg_back_size after a successful merge, and for front merges would
have had to check bi_seg_front_size anyway.
