r8169: fix the KCSAN reported data race in rtl_rx while reading desc->opts1
[ Upstream commit f97eee484e71890131f9c563c5cc6d5a69e4308d ]
KCSAN reported the following data-race bug:

4435 * any other fields out of the Rx descriptor until

4440 if (unlikely(status & RxRES)) {
4441 if (net_ratelimit())
4442 netdev_warn(dev, "Rx ERROR. status = %08x\n",
Marco Elver explained that dma_rmb() doesn't prevent the compiler to tear up the access to
desc->opts1 which can be written to concurrently. READ_ONCE() should prevent that from
happening:
4429
→ 4430 status = le32_to_cpu(READ_ONCE(desc->opts1));
4431 if (status & DescOwn)
4432 break;
4433
As the consequence of this fix, this KCSAN warning was eliminated.
