Subject: [PATCH net] net: ethernet: mediatek: avoid potential invalid memory access

From: Sean Wang <sean.wang@...iatek.com>

Potential dangerous invalid memory might be accessed if invalid mac value
reflected from the forward port field in rxd4 caused by possible potential
hardware defects. So added a simple sanity checker to avoid the kind of
situation happening.
