Lad Prabhakar d216cf7e24 net: ravb: Enforce descriptor type ordering
[ Upstream commit 5370c31e84b0e0999c7b5ff949f4e104def35584 ]

Ensure the TX descriptor type fields are published in a safe order so the
DMA engine never begins processing a descriptor chain before all descriptor
fields are fully initialised.

For multi-descriptor transmits the driver writes DT_FEND into the last
descriptor and DT_FSTART into the first. The DMA engine begins processing
when it observes DT_FSTART. Move the dma_wmb() barrier so it executes
immediately after DT_FEND and immediately before writing DT_FSTART
(and before DT_FSINGLE in the single-descriptor case). This guarantees
that all prior CPU writes to the descriptor memory are visible to the
device before DT_FSTART is seen.

This avoids a situation where compiler/CPU reordering could publish
DT_FSTART ahead of DT_FEND or other descriptor fields, allowing the DMA to
start on a partially initialised chain and causing corrupted transmissions
or TX timeouts. Such a failure was observed on RZ/G2L with an RT kernel as
transmit queue timeouts and device resets.

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.
