"swiotlb buffer is full" errors occur after repeated initialisation of a
device - f.e. suspend/resume or ip link set up/down. This is because memory
mapped using dma_map_single() in ravb_ring_format() and ravb_start_xmit()
is not released.  Resolve this problem by unmapping descriptors when
freeing rings.

Note, ravb_tx_free() is moved but not otherwise modified by this patch.

v1 [Kazuya Mizuguchi]

v2 [Simon Horman]
* As suggested by Sergei Shtylyov
 - Use dma_mapping_error() and rx_desc->ds_cc when unmapping RX descriptors;
   this is consistent with the way that they are mapped
 - Use ravb_tx_free() to clear TX descriptors

   Not sure that was good idea (sorry)... ravb_tx_ring() only unmaps the
transmitted buffers, while we need to unmap everything...

* Reduce scope of new local variable

   Here, it stop once an untransmitted buffer is encountered...

Yes, I see that now.

I wonder if we should:

a) paramatise ravb_tx_free() so it may either clear all transmitted buffers
   (current behaviour) or all buffers (new behaviour).
b) provide a different version of this loop in ravb_ring_free()

What are your thoughts?

   I'm voting for (b).
