net: dsa: felix: fix oversize frame dropping for always closed tc-taprio gates
[ Upstream commit d44036cad31170da0cb9c728e80743f84267da6e ]
The blamed commit resolved a bug where frames would still get stuck at
egress, even though they're smaller than the maxSDU[tc], because the
driver did not take into account the extra 33 ns that the queue system
needs for scheduling the frame.
It now takes that into account, but the arithmetic that we perform in
vsc9959_tas_remaining_gate_len_ps() is buggy, because we operate on
64-bit unsigned integers, so gate_len_ns - VSC9959_TAS_MIN_GATE_LEN_NS
may become a very large integer if gate_len_ns < 33 ns.
In practice, this means that we've introduced a regression where all
traffic class gates which are permanently closed will not get detected
by the driver, and we won't enable oversize frame dropping for them.
