When EF10 RXDP firmware is operating in cut-through mode, packet length
is not known at the time the RX prefix is generated, so it is left as
zero and RX event merging is inhibited to ensure that the length is
available in the RX event. However, it has been found that in certain
circumstances the RX events for these packets still get merged,
meaning the driver cannot read the length from the RX event, and tries
to use the length from the prefix.
The resulting zero-length SKBs cause crashes in GRO since commit
1d11fa6967 ("net-gro: remove GRO_DROP"), so add a check to the driver
to detect these zero-length RX events and discard the packet.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
