Subject: [PATCH 4.9 041/109] net: systemport: Utilize skb_put_padto()

4.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Florian Fainelli <f.fainelli@...il.com>


[ Upstream commit bb7da333d0a9f3bddc08f84187b7579a3f68fd24 ]

Since we need to pad our packets, utilize skb_put_padto() which
increases skb->len by how much we need to pad, allowing us to eliminate
the test on skb->len right below.
