The AX88772B uses only 11 bits of the header for the actual size. The other bits are used for something else. This causes dmesg full of messages: asix_rx_fixup() Bad Header Length This patch trims the check to only 11 bits. I believe on older chips, the remaining 5 top bits are unused.

NOTE2: If Ack-ed, Greg, can you get this into -stable?
