Miquel Raynal e7348308f6 mac802154: Fix LQI recording
commit 5a5c4e06fd03b595542d5590f2bc05a6b7fc5c2b upstream.

Back in 2014, the LQI was saved in the skb control buffer (skb->cb, or
mac_cb(skb)) without any actual reset of this area prior to its use.

As part of a useful rework of the use of this region, 32edc40ae6
("ieee802154: change _cb handling slightly") introduced mac_cb_init() to
basically memset the cb field to 0. In particular, this new function got
called at the beginning of mac802154_parse_frame_start(), right before
the location where the buffer got actually filled.

What went through unnoticed however, is the fact that the very first
helper called by device drivers in the receive path already used this
area to save the LQI value for later extraction. Resetting the cb field
"so late" led to systematically zeroing the LQI.

If we consider the reset of the cb field needed, we can make it as soon
as we get an skb from a device driver, right before storing the LQI,
as is the very first time we need to write something there.

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.
