sfc: Fix memory leak when discarding scattered packets
Commit 2768935a4660 ('sfc: reuse pages to avoid DMA mapping/unmapping costs') did not fully take account of DMA scattering which was introduced immediately before. If a received packet is invalid and must be discarded, we only drop a reference to the first buffer's page, but we need to drop a reference for each buffer the packet used. I think this bug was missed partly because efx_recycle_rx_buffers() was not renamed and so no longer does what its name says. It does not change the state of buffers, but only prepares the underlying pages for recycling. Rename it accordingly. Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
