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:

^^^^ hdr_off=0x2138
^^^^ ^^^^ 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
