Subject: a2065 skb_padto cleanups

Whilst looking for other instances of the bug that was in velocity,
I noticed a few possible cleanups in a2065.  I don't have this
hardware, so extra review appreciated.

Remove unnecessary check (skb_padto does the same check)
Remove unnecessary duplicate variable
Remove unnecessary clearing of padded part of skb.
