If you have dma coherent memory you can make the rx buffer space
be an array of short buffers referenced by adjacent ring entries
(possibly with the last one slightly short to allow for the
2 byte offset).
Then, when a big frame ends up in multiple buffers, you need
a maximum of two copies to extract the data.
