EtherAVB may provide a checksum of packet data appended to packet data. In
order to allow this checksum to be received by the host descriptor data
needs to be enlarged by 2 bytes to accommodate the checksum.
In the case of MTU-sized packets without a VLAN tag the
checksum were already accommodated by virtue of the space reserved for the
VLAN tag. However, a packet of MTU-size with a VLAN tag consumed all
packet data space provided by a descriptor leaving no space for the
trailing checksum.
This was not detected by the driver which incorrectly used the last two
bytes of packet data as the checksum and truncate the packet by two bytes.
This resulted all such packets being dropped.
A work around is to disable RX checksum offload
# ethtool -K eth0 rx off
This patch resolves this problem by increasing the size available for
packet data in RX descriptors by two bytes.
Tested on R-Car E3 (r8a77990) ES1.0 based Ebisu-4D board
v2
* Use sizeof(__sum16) directly rather than adding a driver-local
#define for the size of the checksum provided by the hw (2 bytes).

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.
