net: bcmgenet: fix off-by-one in incrementing read pointer
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Commit b629be5 ("net: bcmgenet: check
harder for out of memory conditions") moved the increment of the local
read pointer *before* reading from the hardware descriptor using
dmadesc_get_length_status(), which creates an off-by-one situation.

Fix this by moving again the read_ptr increment after we have read the
hardware descriptor to get both the control block and the read pointer
back in sync.
