Size is used at lines 1088/1188 for the loop, which reads the last 4
bytes from the crc_ptr so it does need to get increased, however it
shouldn't be increased before the buffer is passed to CRC computation,
or the crc32 function will access uninitialized memory.

This was pointed out to me by clg@kaod.org during the code review of
a similar patch to hw/net/ftgmac100.c
