Subject: [PATCH net] net: mscc: fix the frame extraction into the skb

When extracting frames from the Ocelot switch, the frame check sequence
(FCS) is present at the end of the data extracted. The FCS was put into
the sk buffer which introduced some issues (as length related ones), as
the FCS shouldn't be part of an Rx sk buffer.

This patch fixes the Ocelot switch extraction behaviour by discarding
the FCS.

Fixes: a556c76adc05 ("net: mscc: Add initial Ocelot switch support")

Hi all,

Once this patch will be accepted and net merged into net-next, I'll
probably send another patch to fill skb->csum with the FCS based on
NETIF_F_RXFCS.

Thanks!
Antoine
