[PATCH net 0/2] net: macb: fix software FCS handling of shared and requeued skbs

While testing the genet MTU series I used a Raspberry Pi CM5 (RP1 GEM)
as pktgen source for the CM4. With clone_skb the CM5 rebooted after a
few seconds. Further investigation showed that macb_pad_and_fcs()
appends the FCS in place, so the shared skb grows with every transmit
until BQL completes more than was queued and dql_completed() hits its
BUG_ON.

The same code also modifies the skb before the TX ring check, so a
NETDEV_TX_BUSY retry gets an skb that was already replaced or grown.

Patch 1 checks the ring first, patch 2 copies shared skbs.

Tested on Raspberry CM5 with pktgen at 60/20000 bytes, clone_skb 0/
1000, burst 1/32.
