3.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Yoshihiro Shimoda <yoshihiro.shimoda.uh@xxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit dd019897358b815f7828dab90b51d51df4d3658d ] This patch fixes an issue that the driver increments the "RX length error" on every buffer in sh_eth_rx() if the R8A7740. This patch also adds a description about the Receive Frame Status bits. Signed-off-by: Yoshihiro Shimoda <yoshihiro.shimoda.uh@xxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: David S.
