Hi Jean

what tree is this based on? Have you seen

commit 88fda8eefd9a7a7175bf4dad1d02cc0840581111
Author: Christian Eggers <cegg...@arri.de>
Date:   Sun Nov 1 21:16:10 2020 +0200

    net: dsa: tag_ksz: don't allocate additional memory for padding/tagging
    
    The caller (dsa_slave_xmit) guarantees that the frame length is at least
    ETH_ZLEN and that enough memory for tail tagging is available.
