3.8.13.4 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me
know.
------------------
From: Yoshihiro Shimoda <yoshihiro.shimoda...@renesas.com>
[ Upstream commit dd019897358b815f7828dab90b51d51df4d3658d ]
This patch fixes an issue that the driver increments the "RX length error"
on every buffer in sh_eth_rx() if the R8A7740.
This patch also adds a description about the Receive Frame Status bits.
