Subject: [PATCH net-next] r8152: disable the capability of zero length

The UEFI driver would enable zero length, and the Linux driver doesn't
need it. Zero length let the hw complete the transfer with length 0,
when there is no received packet. It would add the load of USB host
controller and reduce the performance.
