      ====================
      net: bcmgenet: use hardware padding of runt frames
      
      Now that scatter-gather and tx-checksumming are enabled by default
      it revealed a packet corruption issue that can occur for very short
      fragmented packets.
      
      When padding these frames to the minimum length it is possible for
      the non-linear (fragment) data to be added to the end of the linear
      header in an SKB. Since the number of fragments is read before the
      padding and used afterward without reloading, the fragment that
      should have been consumed can be tacked on in place of part of the
      padding.
      
      The third commit in this set corrects this by removing the software
      padding and allowing the hardware to add the pad bytes if necessary.
      
      The first two commits resolve warnings observed by the kbuild test
      robot and are included here for simplicity of application.

      net: bcmgenet: use hardware padding of runt frames · 20d1f2d1
      Doug Berger authored
      When commit 474ea9ca ("net: bcmgenet: correctly pad short
      packets") added the call to skb_padto() it should have been
      located before the nr_frags parameter was read since that value
      could be changed when padding packets with lengths between 55
      and 59 bytes (inclusive).
      
      The use of a stale nr_frags value can cause corruption of the
      pad data when tx-scatter-gather is enabled. This corruption of
      the pad can cause invalid checksum computation when hardware
      offload of tx-checksum is also enabled.
      
      Since the original reason for the padding was corrected by
      commit 7dd39913 ("net: bcmgenet: fix skb_len in
      bcmgenet_xmit_single()") we can remove the software padding all
      together and make use of hardware padding of short frames as
      long as the hardware also always appends the FCS value to the
      frame.

      The 16-bit value that holds a short in network byte order should
      be declared as a restricted big endian type to allow type checks
      to succeed during assignment.

      net: bcmgenet: re-remove bcmgenet_hfb_add_filter · 673bafd5
      Doug Berger authored
      This function was originally removed by Baoyou Xie in
      commit e2072600 ("net: bcmgenet: remove unused function in
      bcmgenet.c") to prevent a build warning.
      
      Some of the functions removed by Baoyou Xie are now used for
      WAKE_FILTER support so his commit was reverted, but this function
      is still unused and the kbuild test robot dutifully reported the
      warning.
      
      This commit once again removes the remaining unused hfb functions.
