[PATCH] net: dsa: tag_mtk: add padding for tx packets

[Felix Fietkau <nbd@nbd.name>]

Padding for transmitted packets needs to account for the special tag.
With not enough padding, garbage bytes are inserted by the switch at the
end of small packets.

Fixes: 5cd8985a1909 ("net-next: dsa: add Mediatek tag RX/TX handler")
