    gianfar: prevent integer wrapping in the rx handler · 202a0a70
    Andy Spencer authored
    When the frame check sequence (FCS) is split across the last two frames
    of a fragmented packet, part of the FCS gets counted twice, once when
    subtracting the FCS, and again when subtracting the previously received
    data.
    
    For example, if 1602 bytes are received, and the first fragment contains
    the first 1600 bytes (including the first two bytes of the FCS), and the
    second fragment contains the last two bytes of the FCS:
    
      'skb->len == 1600' from the first fragment
    
      size  = lstatus & BD_LENGTH_MASK; # 1602
      size -= ETH_FCS_LEN;              # 1598
      size -= skb->len;                 # -2
    
    Since the size is unsigned, it wraps around and causes a BUG later in
    the packet handling, as shown below:

    Change the size to a signed integer and then trim off any part of the
    FCS that was received prior to the last fragment.
