[PATCH net] net: stmmac: fix TSO header length truncation

[Lorenzo Bianconi <lorenzo.bianconi@oss.qualcomm.com>]

stmmac_tso_xmit() stores the protocol header length returned by
stmmac_tso_header_size() in a u8. stmmac_tso_valid_packet() admits
headers up to 1023 bytes, so a header longer than 255 bytes wraps modulo
256 (486 becomes 230, 256 becomes 0).

A TCP over IPv6 socket carrying a few hundred bytes of sticky
destination/hop-by-hop options makes skb_tcp_all_headers() exceed 255
while staying below the 1023-byte limit, so such an skb reaches
stmmac_tso_xmit().

Widen proto_hdr_len to unsigned int, which is sufficient since the value
is bounded by the hardware limit, and adjust the debug print specifier
accordingly.
