Thanks for looking at this Alexander.

I must have mis-understood what the current code is doing.

It looked like RSC packets always show up in-order in the RX ring.

And that they are scanned for by simply combining any sequence of
non-EOP packets up to and including the final EOP one into a frag
list.

Are the RSC packets are identified via something else entirely?
