When padding undersized frames, lib8390.c utilizes a stack scratch area plus memset/memcpy. In doing so, it is overwriting content already zeroed with memset, which seems not optimal even when commented as being more efficient. Using eth_skb_pad() allows us to remove memset/memcpy and the stack scratch area altogether.
