[PATCH net-next v1 1/1] net: stmmac: Fix potential integer overflow

From: Wong Vee Khee <hidden>
Date: 2021-06-11 08:58:00

The commit d96febedfde2 ("net: stmmac: arrange Tx tail pointer update
to stmmac_flush_tx_descriptors") introduced the following coverity
warning:-

  1. Unintentional integer overflow (OVERFLOW_BEFORE_WIDEN)
     overflow_before_widen: Potentially overflowing expression
     'tx_q->cur_tx * desc_size' with type 'unsigned int' (32 bits,
     unsigned) is evaluated using 32-bit arithmetic, and then used in a
     context that expects an expression of type dma_addr_t (64 bits,
     unsigned).

Fixed this by assigning tx_tail_addr to dma_addr_t type, as dma_addr_t
datatype is decided by CONFIG_ARCH_DMA_ADDR_T_64_BIT.
