Anssi Hannula 8159ecab0d net: macb: fix dropped RX frames due to a race
Bit RX_USED set to 0 in the address field allows the controller to write
data to the receive buffer descriptor.

The driver does not ensure the ctrl field is ready (cleared) when the
controller sees the RX_USED=0 written by the driver. The ctrl field might
only be cleared after the controller has already updated it according to
a newly received frame, causing the frame to be discarded in gem_rx() due
to unexpected ctrl field contents.

A message is logged when the above scenario occurs:

  macb ff0b0000.ethernet eth0: not whole frame pointed by descriptor

Fix the issue by ensuring that when the controller sees RX_USED=0 the
ctrl field is already cleared.

This issue was observed on a ZynqMP based system.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
