[PATCH 5.10 463/717] i40e, xsk: clear the status bits for the next_to_use descriptor

[ Upstream commit 64050b5b8706d304ba647591b06e1eddc55e8bd9 ]
On the Rx side, the next_to_use index points to the next item in the
HW ring to be refilled/allocated, and next_to_clean points to the next
item to potentially be processed.
When the HW Rx ring is fully refilled, i.e. no packets has been
processed, the next_to_use will be next_to_clean - 1. When the ring is
fully processed next_to_clean will be equal to next_to_use. The latter
case is where a bug is triggered.
If the next_to_use bits are not cleared, and the "fully processed"
state is entered, a stale descriptor can be processed.
The skb-path correctly clear the status bit for the next_to_use
descriptor, but the AF_XDP zero-copy path did not do that.
This change adds the status bits clearing of the next_to_use
descriptor.
