I'm slightly confused about the vlan situation, does this return the
vlan hdr length when enabled? or vlans are always communicated
out-of-band so don't need to count here?

Unrelated potential issue I spotted:

        skb = build_skb(page_address(page), PAGE_SIZE << rx->page_order);       
        if (unlikely(!skb))                                                     
                goto unmap_page;                                                
                                                                                
        dma_unmap_single(lan966x->dev, (dma_addr_t)db->dataptr,                 
                         FDMA_DCB_STATUS_BLOCKL(db->status),                    
                         DMA_FROM_DEVICE);  

Are you sure it's legal to unmap with a different length than you
mapped? Seems questionable - you can unmap & ask the unmap to skip
the sync, then sync manually only the part that you care about - if you
want to avoid full sync.

What made me pause here is that you build_skb() and then unmap which is
also odd because normally (if unmap was passed full len) unmap could
wipe what build_skb() initialized.
