commit ff7cd07f306406493f7b78890475e85b6d0811ed upstream.
If the other host starts sending packets early on it is possible that we
are still in the middle of populating the initial Rx ring packets to the
ring. This causes the tbnet_poll() to mess over the queue and causes
list corruption. This happens specifically when connected with macOS as
it seems start sending various IP discovery packets as soon as its side
of the paths are configured.
To prevent this we move the DMA path enabling to happen after we have
primed the Rx ring. This makes sure no incoming packets can arrive
before we are ready to handle them.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
