Robert Hancock 62f44f554d net: axienet: fix RX ring refill allocation failure handling
[ Upstream commit 7a7d340ba4 ]

If a memory allocation error occurred during an attempt to refill a slot
in the RX ring after the packet was received, the hardware tail pointer
would still have been updated to point to or past the slot which remained
marked as previously completed. This would likely result in the DMA engine
raising an error when it eventually tried to use that slot again.

If a slot cannot be refilled, then just stop processing and do not move
the tail pointer past it. On the next attempt, we should skip receiving
the packet from the empty slot and just try to refill it again.

This failure mode has not actually been observed, but was found as part
of other driver updates.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
