If any incoming frame is bigger than a single DMA buffer, the Ethernet DMA will
split the content and use multiple DMA buffers instead. But only the DMA
descriptor of the last Ethernet frame segment will contain the frame length.
Previously, the frame length calculation, reassembly of the frame, and the
freeing of DMA descriptors was completely broken and only worked in case the
received frame was small enough to fit into one DMA buffer. This is now fixed,
so that smaller DMA buffers can safely be used now.
Additionally the interface was simplified: Previously two receive flavors were
implemented, with only one ever being used. None of those function was
public due to missing declarations in headers. The unused interface was
dropped and the remaining was streamlined to better fit the use case.
