[PATCH net v5 0/3] octeon_ep, octeon_ep_vf: fix RX skb frags overflow and page leak

From: Maoyi Xie

The octeon_ep and octeon_ep_vf RX paths add one skb fragment per buffer
with no bound against MAX_SKB_FRAGS. buff_info->len comes from the device
response header. A long packet needs about 18 fragments. That is one past
the default MAX_SKB_FRAGS of 17, so skb_add_rx_frag() writes past
shinfo->frags[]. Patch 1 bounds octeon_ep. Patch 3 bounds octeon_ep_vf.

Patch 2 is Guangshuo Li's fix for an octeon_ep_vf RX page leak on the
napi_build_skb() failure path. It touches the same drop code as patch 3.
I carry it here so the series applies without conflict, per Maciej. Patch 3
moves that drain loop into a helper. The helper carries the page frees from
patch 2, so the overflow drop path frees its pages too.

octeon_ep has the same leak on its drop path. A separate patch will fix it
once this series lands.

v5:
- octeon_ep, octeon_ep_vf: widen data_len to u32, per Simon Horman.
buff_info->len is a u64, a u16 could truncate a long length.
- octeon_ep: dropped Maciej Fijalkowski's Reviewed-by, the check changed.
- octeon_ep_vf: the drop helper drains the length in a u32 too.
