To align the arguments used with the one in ravb_rx() which uses 
le16_to_cpu(rx_desc->ds_cc) already before this patch.

        static bool ravb_rx(struct net_device *ndev, int *quota, int q)
        {
        ...
            /* Refill the RX ring buffers. */
            for (; priv->cur_rx[q] - priv->dirty_rx[q] > 0; 
priv->dirty_rx[q]++) {
                    ...
                    desc->ds_cc = cpu_to_le16(priv->rx_buf_sz);

                    if (!priv->rx_skb[q][entry]) {
                            ...
                            dma_addr = dma_map_single(ndev->dev.parent, 
skb->data,
                                                      le16_to_cpu(desc->ds_cc),
                                                      DMA_FROM_DEVICE);
                            ...
                    }    
                    ...
            }
            ...
        }

I have no preference one way or the other but I think both call sites 
should look the same :-)

And +16 is added as the comment above states, to leave from the 
descriptor status appended by the hardware. This is already the case 
with PKT_BUF_SZ which for ravb is is set to 1538. MTU (1500) + ETH_HLEN 
(14) + VLAN_HLEN(4) + ETH_FCS_LEN(4) + ravb status (16) == 1538.

This is also what the sh_eth driver do and I think it's value to keep 
these to driver as similar as possible in this regard, would you not 
agree? If in deed the FSC is not added I think we should fix this for 
both drivers in a follow up commit.
