Re: [PATCH net-next v2 2/7] net: bcmgenet: allow a continuation descriptor without the alignment pad

A frame longer than the packet ready threshold arrives in several
descriptors, each with its own status block. Only the first one also
carries the two alignment bytes. The length check assumes the pad is always
there, so a continuation holding a single byte looks a byte too short and
the whole frame is dropped.

Account for the pad on the first descriptor only.

The MTU cannot produce a frame past the threshold yet, so nothing hits this
today. It is preparation for the larger MTU.
