Roman Gushchin 7169d16388 net: macb: fix a memory corruption in extended buffer descriptor mode
[ Upstream commit e8b74453555872851bdd7ea43a7c0ec39659834f ]

For quite some time we were chasing a bug which looked like a sudden
permanent failure of networking and mmc on some of our devices.
The bug was very sensitive to any software changes and even more to
any kernel debug options.

Finally we got a setup where the problem was reproducible with
CONFIG_DMA_API_DEBUG=y and it revealed the issue with the rx dma:

Lars was fast to find an explanation: according to the datasheet
bit 2 of the rx buffer descriptor entry has a different meaning in the
extended mode:
  Address [2] of beginning of buffer, or
  in extended buffer descriptor mode (DMA configuration register [28] = 1),
  indicates a valid timestamp in the buffer descriptor entry.

The macb driver didn't mask this bit while getting an address and it
eventually caused a memory corruption and a dma failure.

The problem is resolved by explicitly clearing the problematic bit
if hw timestamping is used.

README

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.
