Subject: [PATCH 3.16 206/217] qlge: Fix receive packets drop.

3.16.35-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Manish Chopra <manish.chopra@...gic.com>

[ Upstream commit 2c9a266afefe137bff06bbe0fc48b4d3b3cb348c ]

When running small packets [length < 256 bytes] traffic, packets were
being dropped due to invalid data in those packets which were
delivered by the driver upto the stack. Using pci_dma_sync_single_for_cpu
ensures copying latest and updated data into skb from the receive buffer.
