[PATCH v5 3/4] net: xilinx: axienet: Derive RX frame length from residue in dmaengine path

[Srinivas Neeli]

The dmaengine RX path derived the received frame length from the descriptor
APP metadata. That only works when the optional AXI4-Stream status/control
interface is present, because the hardware populates the APP fields solely
when that interface is enabled. On designs without it the length read back
is invalid.

The AXI DMA engine already reports how many bytes it wrote into the buffer
through the standard dmaengine residue mechanism. Compute the RX frame
length as the posted buffer length minus result->residue, which is
independent of the status/control interface and correct across all designs,
including multi-descriptor frames where the residue is summed over the
chain.

Drop the descriptor metadata lookup, which was only used for this purpose.
Detect a failed transfer from dmaengine_result.result instead of the
metadata pointer return value, and remove the now unused LEN_APP macro.

The transmit path is unaffected. It still passes APP metadata for checksum
offload and derives its length from the skb.

Changes in V5:
 - No change.

Changes in V4:
 - Renamed subject to "Derive RX frame length from residue in dmaengine
   path".
 - Condensed the commit message.
 - Dropped the Fixes tag.

Changes in V3:
 - New patch in this series.
 - This patch enables axienet to work on designs where the AXI4-Stream
   status/control interface is not present. By using the standard
   dmaengine residue mechanism, the driver no longer depends on APP
   fields being populated by hardware.
 - This approach replaces the V2 xferred_bytes mechanism (V2 patch 5/5),
   making the dt-bindings patch (V2 patch 4/5) for xlnx,include-stscntrl-strm
   also unnecessary. Both V2 patches are dropped in this series.
