Subject: [PATCH net v3 0/3] Fix a regression in the Gemini ethernet
 controller.

These fixes were developed on top of the earlier fixes.

Finding the right solution is hard because the Gemini checksumming
engine is completely undocumented in the datasheets.

Signed-off-by: Linus Walleij <linus.walleij@...aro.org>

Changes in v3:
- Fix a whitespace bug in the first patch.
- Add generic accessors to obtain the raw ethertype of an
  ethernet frame. VLAN already have the right accessors.
- Link to v2: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20231216-new-gemini-ethernet-regression-v2-0-64c269413dfa@linaro.org

Changes in v2:
- Drop the TSO and length checks altogether, this was never
  working properly.
- Plan to make a proper TSO implementation in the next kernel
  cycle.
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20231215-new-gemini-ethernet-regression-v1-0-93033544be23@linaro.org
