For ipv6+udp+geneve encapsulation data, the max_mtu should subtract
sizeof(ipv6hdr), instead of sizeof(iphdr).

At least on Meson GXBB, the CORE_IRQ_MTL_RX_OVERFLOW interrupt is thrown
with the stmmac1000 driver, which does not support set_rx_tail_ptr. With

The Amlogic reference driver uses the "mc_val" devicetree property to
configure the PRG_ETHERNET_ADDR0 register. Unfortunately it uses magic
values for this configuration.
According to the datasheet the PRG_ETHERNET_ADDR0 register is at address
0xc8834108. However, the reference driver uses 0xc883
The Ethernet controller available in Meson8b and GXBB SoCs is a Synopsys

This adds support for configuring the PRG_ETHERNET_ADDR registers on

Some arches have virtually mapped kernel stacks, or will soon have.

before mangling th->check and calling crypto function, which might
