From: Lev Stipakov <lev@openvpn.net>

Body of check_subnet_conflict() was commented out
(#if 0) back in 2011, so it is safe now to completely
elimitate this function, including all calls to it.

As a bonus, remove unused local variable in do_set_mtu_service().

I'm a bit sceptical about that one.  Can we make it *work* instead?

It's a good idea, and I've seen support calls with "hey, openvpn is
not working, why?" due to RFC address conflict - so having an indication
in the log might be helpful.

I agree that with "#if 0" this is just dead code.

Any indication in the commit why it was commented out?  Not working
right?
