gianfar: fix size of scatter-gathered frames
The current scatter-gather logic in gianfar is flawed, since it does not consider the eTSEC's RxBD 'Data Length' field is context depening: for the last fragment it contains the full frame size, while fragments contain the fragment size, which equals the value written to register MRBLR. This causes data corruption as soon as the hardware starts to fragment receiving frames. As a result, the size of fragmented frames is increased by (nr_frags - 1) * MRBLR We first noticed this issue working with DSA, where an ICMP request sized 1472 bytes causes the scatter-gather logic to kick in. The full Ethernet frame (1518) gets increased by DSA (4), GMAC_FCB_LEN (8), and FSL_GIANFAR_DEV_HAS_TIMER (priv->padding=8) to a total of 1538 octets, which is fragmented by the hardware and reconstructed by the driver to a 3074 octet frame. This patch fixes the problem by adjusting the size of the last fragment. It was tested by setting MRBLR to different multiples of 64, proving correct scatter-gather operation on frames with up to 9000 octets in size.
