Jose Alonso 7f89bb5d71 net: usb: ax88179_178a: Fix packet receiving
commit f8ebb3ac881b17712e1d5967c97ab1806b16d3d6 upstream.

This patch corrects packet receiving in ax88179_rx_fixup.

- problem observed:
  ifconfig shows allways a lot of 'RX Errors' while packets
  are received normally.

  This occurs because ax88179_rx_fixup does not recognise properly
  the usb urb received.
  The packets are normally processed and at the end, the code exits
  with 'return 0', generating RX Errors.
  (pkt_cnt==-2 and ptk_hdr over field rx_hdr trying to identify
   another packet there)

  This is a usb urb received by "tcpdump -i usbmon2 -X" on a
  little-endian CPU:

           ^^^^ ^^^^           padding

  The dump shows that pkt_cnt is the number of entrys in the
  per-packet metadata. It is "2 * packet count".
  Each packet have two entrys. The first have a valid
  value (pkt_len and AX_RXHDR_*) and the second have a
  dummy-header 0x80000000 (pkt_len=0 with AX_RXHDR_DROP_ERR).
  Why exists dummy-header for each packet?!?
  My guess is that this was done probably to align the
  entry for each packet to 64-bits and maintain compatibility
  with old firmware.
  There is also a padding (0x00000000) before the rx_hdr to
  align the end of rx_hdr to 64-bit.
  Note that packets have a alignment of 64-bits (8-bytes).

  This patch assumes that the dummy-header and the last
  padding are optional. So it preserves semantics and
  recognises the same valid packets as the current code.

  This patch was made using only the dumpfile information and
  tested with only one device:
  0b95:1790 ASIX Electronics Corp. AX88179 Gigabit Ethernet

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.
