[PATCH v2 net] bnxt_en: fix DMA mapping length for padded small packets

[Eric Dumazet <edumazet@kernel.org>]

Stefan Fleischmann reported Intel IOMMU DMA Read faults on BCM57412
NetXtreme-E NICs when transmitting packets on VLAN/macvlan interfaces:

  DMAR: [DMA Read NO_PASID] Request device [18:00.0] fault addr 0xfc499000
        [fault reason 0x06] PTE Read access is not set
  bnxt_en 0000:18:00.0 eno1np0: Abandoning msg {0xb4 0x41a} len: 0 due to firmware status: 0x2000001
  ...
  NETDEV WATCHDOG: eno1np0 (bnxt_en): transmit queue 0 timed out

The fault address (0xfc499000) is on an exact 4KB page boundary,
pointing to a DMA read buffer overrun.

In bnxt_start_xmit(), packets smaller than BNXT_MIN_PKT_SIZE (52 bytes),
such as 42-byte untagged ARP frames, are padded:

    if (length < BNXT_MIN_PKT_SIZE) {
        pad = BNXT_MIN_PKT_SIZE - length;
        if (skb_pad(skb, pad))
            goto tx_kick_pending;
        length = BNXT_MIN_PKT_SIZE;
    }

    mapping = dma_map_single(&pdev->dev, skb->data, len, DMA_TO_DEVICE);
    ...
    dma_unmap_len_set(tx_buf, len, len);

However, 'len' was initialized earlier to skb_headlen(skb) (e.g. 42 bytes)
and is left unadjusted after padding. Consequently, dma_map_single() and
dma_unmap_len_set() map and track only 42 bytes.

Later, the hardware TX buffer descriptor is programmed with the padded length:

    txbd->tx_bd_len_flags_type =
        cpu_to_le32(((len + pad) << TX_BD_LEN_SHIFT) | flags |
                    TX_BD_FLAGS_PACKET_END);

The NIC DMA engine is thus instructed to read 52 bytes from a region where
only 42 bytes were DMA-mapped. If skb->data ends near the boundary of a 4KB
page (within 'pad' bytes of the next page), the hardware DMA read overruns
into the unmapped adjacent page, triggering an IOMMU fault.

This issue was exposed after commit 447cbe95ebb9 ("vlan: fix skb_under_panic
and races when toggling HW VLAN offload") because reserving extra VLAN
headroom rounded LL_RESERVED_SPACE from 48 up to 64 bytes, shifting skb->data
offsets and potentially causing small frames to land right against page
boundaries.

Fix this by using skb_put_padto(skb, BNXT_MIN_PKT_SIZE) earlier in
bnxt_start_xmit().
This ensures skb->len and skb_headlen(skb) reflect the padded size so
that dma_map_single() maps the full buffer and the descriptor length is
consistent. This also removes the temporary 'pad' variable and masking logic.
